Gordon, Chyrisa and My birthdays in 2008!

A cruise to Cabo St. Lucas, Mexico
$ 199 per person, it comes to $235 with everything. The cruise is for February 4th to the 8th leaving from San Diego. I had to pay $300 today and pay the balance by Dec. 6th which is $139.92. We can cancel up to the date of December 6th with a full refund.
The lady we are working with is named Rochell, her phone number is 800-338-4962 ext. 140. We are under the name of Robnik which is my friend. If you do decide to book it make sure you tell them it is your birthday too and because we are having a party on \Feb. 5th. We are going to have the dining hour at 6:15pm and we 8 or 9 couples will all be together. It would be great if Bobby could join us - maybe an early grad present. The ship is Carnaval. The trip is 4 nights. I HOPE YOU CAN COME. IT WOULD BE AWESOME.

January 21, 2007 still in Quartzsite, Arizona

We are having a good time here. Lots of old and new friends. Several of us have been shopping everyday then beading every afternoon then games or a quiet night by ourselves.

Tonight we had a birthday dinner for several January birthday people. Gordon was one of them. We had a great dinner and lots of fun.

I will try to post some pictures but I am having some problems.

Sunday

We are at my sister in laws house in Mesa, AZ., we plan to be here for a few days. Then on to Quartzsite for the annual get together with the Boomers. (RV club)

Gordon was real sick for one day. We thought it was the flu but he got over it in one day. So today is real special we are going to see our nephew, Paul, that we have not seen for about 10 years. He is a chef at 88 AZ Bar. Will send pictures in a few hours.

Gordon is doing good not sick anymore. But we both still have a nagging cough.
