The Mission and family time

September 17 - It was a wicked night!  Molly got me up, Bill’s phone got me up and my phone got me up!  So at 7 I gave up and got up!  I made scones, bacon, cantaloupe and an egg for Bill this morning and then got on the computer while Bill went to Wal-mart to get a prescription filled. 

I showered and posted 2 blogs after downloading photos.  Straightened up a bit and after lunch Bill and I went out to the San Xavier Mission.  There were more people in the square and walking around than when Karen and I were there a few years ago.  We headed right

Bill was feeding the one in front

for the ladies who make the Indian Fry Bread.  We both had ours with cinnamon and butter.  Yum!  Then we checked out the jewelry/gift shops but didn’t buy anything.  Bill was curious about land ownership of the tribe lands so he had a nice talk with the shop owner.  We had someone take our photo in front of the mission holding a copy of our hometown newspaper.  We send it in and they "might" put us in the paper!

Yes, Indian Fry Bread

We didn’t tour the mission, as we’ve done it several times before.  On the way back into Tucson we stopped at La Mesa RV but the store part was closed so we went around the corner to Camping World.  We needed a new accordion stand for the sewer hose

In front of the mission with our
local paper!

and we got a sprayer contraption to run down the toilet to help clean the black tank and I hope we find a way to run it down into the gray tank also as the sensors are not working correctly and that’s a pain!

Carole was doing dinner tonight so we headed there and she and I talked crafts and while the guys watched TV.  She served rotisserie chicken and potato salad and we all had our fill.  Bill loves potato salad so he was a happy camper.  We stayed until 9 and planned to get home in time to watch Chesapeake Shores but there was a glitch and it had come on at 7 on Directv so I guess we missed it.  Oh well.  Maybe next week.

We didn’t last long after that and Bill fell asleep on the couch and I sent him to bed and shortly after I followed.
