2015.02.12 Yuma Senior Games and Golf






I played pickleball in the Yuma Senior Games this morning. My partner and I signed up for the women's doubles in the 50+ age group.  We ended up winning a silver medal and were both very excited. The games were held here at Fortuna de Oro so we didn't have far to travel and we were both very familiar with the courts. One thing about the courts here, is that they are some of the nicest around.
We spent the afternoon golfing with Dona and Mike. We played the golf course here at the park. It's a pretty little 9-hole course and it was a beautiful day to be outside. 

2015.02.11 Another Bike


We found this bike in Mom's trailer when we took her Christmas decorations there to store them. Needless to say, I confiscated it so that Jeff and I could go for bike rides together. This one has a very big and comfortable seat. As a matter of fact, Dona calls this a tractor seat.

2015.02.10 Goat Farm









The Red Hat Ladies had a mystery trip today and we ended up at a goat farm that is just south of Yuma. We learned about the Toggenburg goats and got to hold the baby goats. The owners of the farm produce many products with the goat milk, such as different flavors of goat milk cheese and also many different lotions. We had a good time and ended our day at Applebee's for lunch. This is a great group of ladies and I always enjoy our outings.

2015.02.09 Lost Teeth

A really weird thing happened last night. I had a tooth (one of my crowns) that just fell out of my mouth all of a sudden. Within an hour the tooth next to it also fell out. I put the teeth in a baggie and made plans to head to the dentist in Mexico this morning and have the teeth glued back in. Much to my surprise, the roots were not long enough to glue the teeth back in to, so I ended up having to have two implants and a bone graft. That is definitely not what I was expecting, but I guess that I am lucky that it happened here as the cost will be about a third of what it would cost me at home. I have two temporary teeth to tide me over for now, until I can get new crowns put in next fall. By the time that we got home, I was otherwise occupied and did not get my photo for the day, and I will spare everyone taking photos of my teeth. =D
