Richard, try natural honey and powdered cinnamon, it's supposed to help lower Cholesterol and actually safe for diabetics. Google it for the usefulness of it.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
That huge storm that rolled through CA. NV. AZ. UT. CO. and more was wicked, wet and windy. We had to hunker down in Vegas another day before heading home tomorrow. But at least there was no snow.

Good luck with the gang at the Vet. My Cookie goes into her drama queen mode when we go to the Vet, never seen a dog shake so much.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Richard, I'm hoping that Mama can make it. It's tough to know when enough is enough, but I'm sure you and Mama will make that decision when the time is right. I'm thinking once Mama passes on Hobo may be affected by her loss. We watched this with our little Chihuahua, Ginger, when our Sammy passed on. Sam was with Ginger from the time she was 8 weeks old until he left us, that was 12 years. I had just had Ginger in for a physical and was told that she had a long life ahead of her. Towards the end Sam was both blind and deaf and we would tell Ginger to go get him from the yard, she would nudge him and lead him back in the house. Sam was almost 19 years old. Ginger started having problems holding herself in the house. when I took her to the Vet he said her heart was enlarging. Less then 5 months she passed on to join Sam. I think she died of a broken heart. I truely believe that our pets do form bonds and attachments much like we do.
With all that said you might want to hug Hobo a little more then usual to help ease her through the up coming loss of Mama.
I really would like to meet Mama in Branson, tell her We and Cookie & Rocky said to hang in there.

Thanks for all the suggestions, Desert Trails in Tucson and San Diego are looking good.

RE: Leaving Earlier???
The Mongolian Grill is called LIN's and is kitty corner from Sam's Club on 16th and Pacifica. You'll see their bill boards along the interstate. One price for the Mongolian BBQ, Steak, Sushi and great Chinese Buffet.

RE: Tired of The Same Place
One priority you seem to have is a campfire. Most RV resorts will not allow you to have a campfire.
Campfire is not a problem, I have a propane fireplace and have never had a Resort/Park say no to it. KozyTimes.

RE: Tired of The Same Place
Come on people help the OP out, give him some names. I'll just sit here and listen. I would love to find this Valhala. I am not making a joke. I think all of us that snow-bird, and full time are looking for exactly that. Good Luck. Macktee
Thanks Macktee, OK, I'll consider Florida and I'll even bump it up to $600.00, so let's hear from you folks in the South East.

Tired of The Same Place
For the past 5-6 years we have stayed in the same RV park in Yuma. We have made friends with a lot of folks but now feel the need to find something else. Most folks go inside at dark, no one hangs out around a fire after 7pm. We're not ready to do that and are wondering where we can find folks that aren't in bed by 8pm. We're not wild party folks, but we do like staying up at least to 10pm and having fun. Here's a list of what we are looking for.
1. Warm in the Winter
2. Pool/hot tub not important
3. Activities other then food,food and more food
4. Pet friendly, real pet friendly, have 2 Shih Tzus
5. No bugs, flys, or mosquitos
6. little or no wind
7. No extra charge for pets
8. Pet park (fenced)is a plus
9.Free or reasonable wifi
10. No goat heads, stickers, burrs that would bother my furkids
11. Reasonable electric, currently paying .18 per KW
12 Monthly rate under 500 a month
13. Must have happy, friendly and fun loving folks
14. Exercise (Yoga) and dance instructions a real plus
15. Not Florida
Does such a place exist?? Where oh where can it be?

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Good News, the cage finally worked last night. He was caught around supper time. When the gate closed he just layed down. No panic, actually he was pretty calm even when they put the rope around his neck to transfer him to the kennel on the truck. Once in that kennel he just layed down. A few of the folks even petted him and no problem. Too bad I already have two furkids, he is going to make someone a great companion. There are two folks here in the Park that are thinking of adopting him, I'm praying that one of them does. Sure would be nice to see him in a great home.
Most folks here have decided that his name should be Tramp, mainly because of his daily routine in moving through this and the adjoining parks, kinda like Tramp in the movie.
We're here until next Sunday, hope to hear that someone is adopting him before we leave.

Here in AZ they don't do the day light savings time thing. Funny thing is my cell phone didn't change but the CR-V navigation did.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
They set the trap up last night and somehow he tripped it but didn't get caught in it. He didn't get the big beef bone out of it, hopefully he'll come back and try again. This is one smart dog, wish I could handle another one but the places we go to will not allow more then two pets.
This guy will make one heck of a pet when and if he can be caught.

RE: Leaving Earlier???
Nope....both spots are still occupied. Judging solely from the traffic, I'd say Yuma had more winter visitors this year....so glad they are leaving early, maybe now we can get a table at the new Mongolian Grill.
Regards
Gemstone
We ate there yesterday at around 2. The food is good The Mongolian BBQ is EXCELLENT, best we've had since Korea in 84-86. Got to hit it one more time before we head out.
Watched at least 4 more head out today, at least the show dogs are back.

Leaving Earlier???
Is it just our park or are folks leaving earlier this year??
Also, we had more empty spots this year, what about where you were?
This is in Yuma, AZ.

RE: Slowbirds
Oh, I thought perhaps someone was finally saying something about the slosnobirds driving here in Yuma on 32nd street. 55 does mean 55mph. Yuma could make a fortune on tagging the inconsiderates in the left lane for holding up traffic.

Years ago Mom use to use the lit end of a cigarette or lighter fluid to get the tick to back out, depending on where it was.
