Wendy had to return home after two weeks with us so the closest direct flight was from San Diego. So, with the Catlins (friends of ours from Indiana) we took her to San Diego and she flew home. We spent the next two days there seeing the sights.
One of the sites we visited was the famous Hotel del Coronado, a grand hotel dating back to 1888. It rests on a peninsula just across the bay from San Diego on a 31 acre seaside resort. It has access to 18 miles of Coronado;s beaches, collectively named the #2 beach in the United States.
We have returned to Yuma and are enjoying seeing friends from all over who winter in Yuma. Some live here year around and then they leave in the summer. Did you know that over 70,000 "snowbirds" come to Yuma in the winter.
The small town of about 30,000 people bustles with activities when all us "snowbirds" arrive. We are about eight miles east of the downtown in an area called the "Foothills", near the base of the mountains.
We park on a lot owned by our friends the Catlin's. Property around here has been designed for folk with RV's. Each lot has space for two RV's with all hookups. Where we are located there is a little building that has a game room, bathroom and laundry facilities. It works out real nice.
On February 11 we leave for Israel with a group of friends from our church. We will be there ten days. So, after we return you can beg us to show pictures.
Well, more another time.
Don and Marilyn
