On Monday's we spend a couple of evening hours with the Fun Band.

On Monday's we spend a couple of evening hours with the Fun Band. When they say fun, they mean fun!! Each person is invited to sing a song from the Fun Band song book. Then everybody trys to play and sing along with them. It doesn't matter if you sing well or play well, most of us don't, but we encouraged to try, and nobody says anything but good about it. So even though we sometimes sound like 'chalk on a blackboard' we still feel good about it!! This past Monday we dressed up Hawaiian and brought Hawaiian food for a potluck. We enjoyed some special performances from our new Ukulele band, and watched a video about what some of the leaders did over their summers back home. What a great night!!

Competed in the Tucson Senior Olympics Pickleball Tournament held atthe Voyager RV Park last week.

Competed in the Tucson Senior Olympics Pickleball Tournament held at the Voyager RV Park last week. My partner and I competed in both the 'age' and 'skill level' categories. We are both skill level 3.5 and competed against like skill levels in that event. We were knocked out having lost 2 out of 5 matches. Didn't fare as well in the 'age' catergory where we played higher skill levels. All in all a lot of fun, and a chance to see the best players around Tucson.

Mixed a couple of days of Dagmar's biking together here.

Mixed a couple of days of Dagmar's biking together here. She did 42 miles on Wednesday and 35 on Thursday. One of the men in this photo had an accident later in the ride. He ran into a closing gate guard that knocked him from his bike. He ended up with in an ambulance for a trip to the hospital where he found out he had a punctured lung. Also included a couple of photos of our hiking schedule. Several look pretty difficult...8 miles and 1600' elevation gain, that's going to be a tough one!!
