Misc. Yuma pictures

Nice car parked by the American Legion Hall where we had breakfast today.

Checker in Fry's.  His hat has battery operated lights that flash.

Wonderful food!  Fresh seafood, (cooked and raw), fresh fruits, puddings, yogurt, etc.  And, they sell about 20 flavors of hard Mexican Ice Cream.  Skid and Sandy have been here to sample the goodies! 

4 December 2011.  The usual cloudy skies of Yuma :-)  I was on the scooter today, this balloon was following me along 3rd Street.   Blue on Blue.
We've had this BBQ (a Stok) for a week,  used it 3 times.  Tried Pizza on a center stone last night, that didn't work too well.  But, these T-bones were EXCELLENT.  The Applewood chips put up a nice smoke, and we used a prime rib rub on the meat. Can't remember having anything much better :-)
Blue on Blue.  Yuma sky on December 4, 2011.  Taken from my motorcycle.
Our good friend Ev fell down today, she landed pretty hard.  Knees and hips are very sore.  Bummer.

First attempt to cook a roast in the charcoal BBQ.  Other than being a little tough, it tasted all right.  All the other food was much better.  Dale and Ev shared dinner with us.  A real sacrifice considering her battered body. :-)

Janet & Bonnie sing a duet in the Bard Community Building.  There are "Sings" here in Bard, California every Friday night during the snowbird season

Amber, or favorite waitress in Yuma, takes our order.  She can handle 20 people as easily as 6.  Excellent service here at the Mad Chef.

Jim & Bonnie Adams.  A very talented couple!  They both play several instruments, and sing beautifully!

Yuma has 2 Farmer's Markets in the West area.  One in Old Town, and this one at the Yuma Palms outside Mall.  This booth sold many different kinds and flavors of Pasta

Nice morning, but not a lot of people out.  The one on Tuesday in downtown Old Town us usually packed with customers and lookers

Hot new item this year.  "Naked Sandals".  Couple different booths were selling them.

This couple added some good entertainment

Pat bought this bowl.  The lady that sold it was at artist.  She uses real leaves in the mold, after it's set and trimmed, she paints them.  She also did some nice SW designs, but this one with the leaves caught Pat's eye.  They are "one of a king"

There was a booth selling organic vegetables grown in gallon jugs in a green house.  We picked up this small egg plant, and a very expensive sort of purple tomato.  I hope they taste good!  (the cactus isn't organic)
