Windy Day

---

We get up around 7AM. We slept good. Larry and Henna join us for lattes. We sat around and chatted for awhile. We then had a leisurely breakfast: scrambled eggs, bacon, Larry's chili (shredded pork, tomatoes, spices). It's hot and spicy and we put it on top of our eggs. It was about 10:45. I'd better get a shower; Annie, Bobbie and Denny are coming around 11:30.
They arrive safely around 11:30. It is very windy up on top of this hill. We help them unload. Denny is staying with us; Bobbie and Annie with Larry and Henna.
The guys head to Sierra Vista. Larry has to get a spare tire for his RV. The girls sit around and chat for awhile, then we head to town. If you've been to Bisbee, you know it's an artist town with many shops with crafts, artwork, unique items. Annie buys a scarf. I bought a cross for my collection in our bedroom.
We went to the Queen Mine Hotel. We sat out on the balcony and ordered some drinks. Annie had a vodka tonic, Denny a gin and tonic, Henna and I had Miller lites. The guys called and said they would join us. When they arrived, they ordered another round of drinks. A lot better than being at work!!
The guys head back to camp and we decide to walk around a bit more. We pass an ice cream shop and decide we must have one. We head back to camp and it's close enough to happy hour, we get the cheese, crackers, wine and beer out. It's time for dinner.
Tonights menu: Grilled Pork tenderloin (marinated in--thyme, mustard, soy sauce, dry sherry, olive oil, garlic, ginger), served with au jus (apple jelly, soy sauce, dry sherry), asparagus with olive oil and garlic, wild rice. Ken starts the grill. We have new neighbors. A couple from Mesa. They have a camper called a Tear drop. It's very tiny; only has a queen bed; you can't stand up in it. No bathroom, a small kitchen in the back. So..they have no where to go so they are hovering by Ken as he cooks. Denny and I are in our RV making the rice and asparagus. Ken opens the door and introduces us to Linda...the lady next door. She comes in and starts talking and never stops. She is talking about her camper and I think she is trying to convince herself how great it is. I called Henna to tell her we were ready for dinner. We really weren't but I thought if everyone showed up, she would get the hint...and she did. Her and her husband were still hovering over the grill with Ken and knowing how kind he is, I was sure he would invite them for dinner. We already have 7 which is enough in an RV. So....I call Ken in, acting like I need him to look at something and I tell him, don't invite them for dinner. Finally dinner was ready and it was delicious!
We cleaned up and it was time for the Ghost Tour in town. We bundled up and took our flashlights. We met our group in front of the Queen Mine Hotel. Annie started to feel bad: she gets a sharp pain in her side and she cannot walk when this happens. Since the Ghost tour is a walking tour, she decides to go back to the truck and wait. 😞
The tour was kind of disappointing; it's nice walking through the town, but not really that interesting. There was a woman who shared that she was really feeling something when we toured the hotel. She was real emotional and had tears down her face. Denny was sitting next to me and says 'bullshit'. We left the hotel and passed a bar where there were people outside with fake butt cheeks on.....they were hollaring 'boo moon' to our group. Kind of weird.
The tour took us past where our truck was, so we left the group and got in the truck. Annie was glad to see us; she said there was a lot going on: cops driving around, young kids in groups-possible drugs deals, who knows. We saw no ghosts, but it was a nice night.
When we get back to the RV, we are all tired and say goodnight. I help Denny make her bed. We read our books a while and went to sleep.
