Back in Havasu

We arrived back in Havasu yesterday about 2:00p Arizona time.  Traffic along the drive was a bit heavy which can be expected since New Years is coming up.  The temperature here is about 10 degrees cooler than the California coast and today we have about 20 mph winds.  Fortunately the winds are supposed to die down tomorrow.

I’m a Big Spender

For the last year Susan has wanted, well needed a new cell phone.  Finally I decided to start looking for a replacement for her antiquated communication device.  One problem is, since I don’t want to give up my Basic Phone Plan through Verizon (no need for a Data Plan) there is a Very limited selection of phones available.  I was in the local Best Buy store here near our daughters house and spotted a phone I though Susan would like.  As I always do I returned home and started my research on the Internet before making my purchase.  Well I found the same phone at Walmart Wireless for $0.01.  That’s right, 1 cent.  So I started the online order process only to realize if I ordered it now it would arrive at our place in Lake Havasu City before we arrived back.  Also the website said it would be activated when delivered.  Not wanting it to be delivered before we return and be activated leaving our present phone unless until we get back I decided to abort the order.  Not wanting to possibility miss the 1 cent deal I called the order number and asked about the activation process.  Well the girl (from India) said I could have it delivered after I return.  So I placed the order and asked to have it delivered after the first of the year.  The next day I checked the order status online and noticed it was shipped and will arrive Dec 20, which it did.  Good thing is it hasn’t been activated and our present phone has not been shut off.  The other thing that amazes me is they actually charged my credit card $0.01, yes that’s 1 cent.

Moved to California

We are now in California for Christmas.  We only took the car, which gets MUCH BETTER mileage than the motorhome.  I was pleasantly amazed that I got 30 MPG on this trip.  The last times I got around 28.  Guess the wind was blowing in the right direction. 

Anyway, we are now at our daughters house until the day after Christmas, then we will head on over to Susan’s parents house.  They are only 30 minutes away. 

We arrived Wednesday and today we got our grandson who will spend a few days with us.  Tomorrow we will pick up our granddaughter for the day.  We haven’t seen her for quite some time. 

I don’t plan on doing much here.  It’s just nice to get away from the resort for a while and it will be nice to see the family.
