I promised to get off the sunset thing, but when
family comes from CA...
and they want to go upstairs and watch the sunset you
oblige them. Social distancing in place and masks off
only for the photos.
Selfie time... for daughter Kristine and son-in-law Richard.
And a photo of the folks.
Lots of posing going on...
and this photographer takes a photo of the other photographer.
Time to head down as the "kids" head off to the local
Best Western.
The next morning they came back at 8:00 a.m. to play some
pickleball. There are big smiles under those masks.
Back home we continued our outside visiting. Don mentioned
that our louvered patio cover wouldn't open and close properly
so Richard jumped up, got out the ladder and had it all fixed in
a short period of time.
Then we told him that the French Doors leaked water
into the "loom room" whenever we had rain or hosed
the patio.
So Richard took the doors off, identified the problem
and headed for Home Depot.
After a lot of hard work... 2 hours of pickleball and
a couple of hours of home repair in 90 degree weather
the final test, flood the doors with water. YIPPEE,
no water inside... Handy guy to have around. You could
tell he had worked in construction in his past
life even tho he is currently a corporate executive at Intel.
As Richard finally sat down, he looked across the street and spotted
the perfect conclusion to our 2-day visit. Kristine and I grabbed
our iPhones and ran around the corner to catch this bobcat
as he strolled across the street. Bobcats weigh between 12 & 30
lbs and range from 2 to 2.5 feet in length. Their tail is short 5-7 inches
(hence the name Bobcat) and they have very large paws.
Even though they look cute, they are fierce animals and can kill
animals as large as a deer (according to AZ Game & Fish).
Thank goodness for a zoom lens!!!
