Jojoba Hills SKP Co-Op, Aguanga, CA: Mar 1-27
We had such a good time visiting Pat & Dennis here last Feb that we decided that we should come back. That decision went on-again-off-again a few times, but we finally settled in on March 1. We arrived just in time for the local NPR station's spring pledge drive. Fortunately the park can get two NPRs, so we were able to tolerate the fuzzy one until the pledge drive was over. It is interesting to contrast the goals & styles of the membership drives between Yuma and LA -- Yuma's goal over 8 days was $20,000, far less than the one-day goal in LA.
While here we got a call from Doug's brother Bob saying that Gayle's move to Albuquerque was on and happening no later than March 23. So much for no earlier than mid-April. After much discussion with all parties involved, we decided that our best plan was to leave the move in Bob's capable hands & for the most part just stay the heck out of the way. Doug will probably drive back to Tucson with Erin next weekend to see the house one last time and verify that there is nothing there that one of us just can't live without. In the meantime, we'll continue to enjoy Jojoba Hills and Pat & Dennis's excellent company. We enjoy the line dancing class and have learned to play Mah Jongg (American), plus there are bridge games fairly close almost any day of the week.
As for our plans after March, we got confirmed to return to Chaco Culture NHP in June as campground hosts, and also at Lewis Lake CG in Yellowstone NP in Sept & Oct for a similar position. Anyone wanting to visit us in either location is more than welcome. There is a bridge tournament in the Phoenix area in early April that we plan to attend, and of course we plan to drop by the Denver/Boulder area between Chaco and Yellowstone.We are happy to report that all of the cats still seem to be doing well (knock wood). It is hard to imagine life without any one of them. We still miss Gracie -- every one of them carves out their own little niche in our hearts that can never be filled.

Depending on the time of your arrival in Boulder, perhaps our paths can cross there. I plan on being in the Denver/Boulder area through at least the middle of July. Perhaps longer.
