Happy New Year from Casa Grande

---

Wow; it’s 2012. How did that happen? We realize that we have more new years in the bank than we have ahead, especially being mindful that my Uncle Henry’s journey through life recently ended. I enjoyed visiting him via Skype during his last year.

Our little Shaddy was groomed on New Years Eve, and is looking spiffy. We celebrated his 13^th birthday in early December. What a joy he is to us. He posed for a photo with Santa to celebrate the season.

We grilled shrimp on the barbee for dinner on New Year’s eve. The Trail Boss fixed up some baked ‘taters and sautéed tasty zucchini. We washed it down with some deliciously smooth 2007 Bell Chardonnay that was gifted to us by friends Diane and Phil, who know their way around Napa Valley.

We will be at Palm Creek through January 2012. Then we hitch up and head east to Tucson for two months at the Voyager RV Resort. What a fun adventure.

New Years
Hey Neighbors...and a Happy New Year to you! The ranch is still standing. The horses in the garage are still running. Very dry...sunny NY Day but not as warm as you sorry to say! Keep having fun and we'll see you when spring is just around the corner. Be well. Love, peace and joy, Terry and Pat

Yummy foods
Oh you 3 are having a great trip and Shaddy is 13 and what a wonderful life he has had with his human family. Those photos are georgeous especially the moon & palm tree with a lavender background. That photo might need to be painted...Julia

Happy Belated New Years!
Looks perfect, sounds perfect, and I have no doubt that your meal was perfect. We had a quiet holiday which we enjoy. New Years was much the same. I have been spared of anything major for 14 days now. A record since July. Hoping it continues. Happy trails as you continue your wonderful trip! Love, ...Tom
