Most days were getting up, swimming, showering, eating, going to games, swimming, eating and lots of laughing. Of course, since I had a sinus reaction of some kind to AZ, I needed to take some drugs. My eyes watered, my nose ran and my sinus (only the left side) hurt. I had to cancel a dinner with an old work mate and her sister on Monday due to the sinus. But by Tuesday I was okay and did not look like a one eyed squinty goof.
I think the best day came on Wednesday when I went for a drive and passed by the "Turf Soaring School". I drove by and went on to Wickenburg after trying to see Lake Pleasant just for fun but I did not want to pay $6 to see the lake. On the way back to the house I decided to see what was up at the soaring school.
Sure glad I did.
Got to see Lake Pleasant from 5000 feet. The flight was just under an hour and counts as my first sail plane lesson. Not that I did much learning. I just for the most part looked out and thoroughly enjoyed myself. Wahoooooo!!!!
I did take the stick for about two minutes but decided I did not want to be nervous and told the pilot that I would just enjoy the ride. I sure did!!
Today is cloudy and our last day and last game. Yesterday was hot. Today may be hotter but I hope the clouds keep it cooler. Under 90 is what I mean by cooler. Tomorrow my bro and I head for home. We still do not know which way we will go yet.
We have to find a new house to rent too. The owner is no longer renting after our stay. We were not the cause she assured me. So it's back to VRBO and a search for a 5 bedroom rental. Such is life.
Let me get this straight....you didn't want to pay $6 to see the lake so you bought a glider ride for $5.99 to see the lake, right?
ReplyDeleteWhat a goof....but I'm glad you had the experience and enjoyed the heck out of it! By the way, how was the lake???
