Up early and getting ready for the girl's visit.  When I talked to Mom last night, she did not know if they would be staying in Wickenburg for the night or just stopping for coffee.  I guess we will see when they get here.
The sun is shining through the windows and it looks like it is going to be another nice day.  I see that it is a balmy -30C back home today so it is even warming up for the folks back home!!
It is going to be a busy day today with Jim arriving later on for some Jeep repairs, John's Mom coming and Charlotte and Keith arriving!!  Never a dull moment around here lately!!
I see on Facebook that Kim finally went to the Medi-clinic for some drugs to help get her over this darn cold.  Good thing too as her and Jace are leaving either Friday or Saturday for a wedding in Vegas then coming here for a week.  John and I get to pick Coors up on Monday!!
I baked some blueberry muffins for when Mom and Georgie get here and they turned out great.  Not bad for a mix!!  I am a Queen in the kitchen!!
It was time to clean the bus up, do some dusting etc and with company coming I have a n excuse to do it.  Once that was done and John finally out of bed, we were ready to greet our company.  They had not arrived by noon so I phoned them and of course they didn't answer so I really did not know what had happened.  Perhaps they changed their minds.
Jim arrived and it wasn't too long before he had his job done.  His Jeep is up and running again and has a few new parts.
Just as Jim was finishing up, Mom and Georgie arrived - they had spent the day shopping!!  It was good to see them again and they had all sorts of adventurous tales to tell us of where they had been and what they had seen.  They both claimed to be tired from all the running around they had done for the past month and were glad to be headed home for some much needed rest!!  Too bad they have to head back into the cold weather.
The girls stayed for supper  and we sat around the campfire while John bbq'd steak and baked potatoes.   It was another lovely evening.  They are staying in Wickenburg tonight and with directions in hand, they headed to the Best Western for the night.  Mom wants to see the light of Vegas tomorrow so they will be getting a late start.  John told them to stop and see the Museum before they leave so hopefully they will.
Charlotte and Keith showed up and stayed just long enough to let us know they will be arriving tomorrow to see if indeed they have internet access out here so that Keith can work.  If they don't, they will only stay for the weekend so that Charlotte can pick John's brain about her trailer and how everything works.

With Fire

With everyone gone, John and I watched the fire burn down while he cooked our meal and then,  it was time for bed.  Another great day - come and gone.
