Misc. Yuma Pictures

11/21/11.  Redd went with me to Kingman to pick up a few things we needed in Yuma.  We stopped for lunch at Dora's in Old Town.

11/23/11.  I rode the scooter to San Luis.  Wanted some Wrangler jeans that all the  Yuma stores were out of, so headed to the Border.  Picked up 2 pair, then, on the way home, stopped in Gadson to say hello to "Charlie".  He was disappointed I didn't have any food for him, but think he was glad to see me :-)

Katie took this picture last Winter.  On the bridge over the Gila River.
Jim & Katie's cactus are healthy and growing.  We got all the weeds out and trimmed the Fire Cactus, which had grown clear over to our carport! 

The Olander that was a big controversy last year are growing fine. (These pics for Jim & Katie)

The T-Dub and the Classic have dust on the covers, but they are just sitting here waiting for you!

We brought out "traveling" plants with us. They like Yuma too.

The small one was a gift from Karen & Preston, several years ago.  It was about dead, but the Desert dirt and climate is healing it.

This a first!  there is a line getting into Mexico!  Never before have we had to stop to get in. The inspection station is on the US side. The Mexican side is at least manned now, but they just smile and wave you through. The US side is a very serious and grouchy experience.

Since we had a huge Thanksgiving potluck here in the park last weekend, we decided to go to Algodones for some fresh Tamales and Shrimp Tacos.  They were delicious! The pink things are pickled onions.  We'll have a little something else on this side of the Border a little later.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
