Casa Sweet Casa
For most of January, we’ve been hanging out in Casa Grande, AZ (except for our trip to San Francisco, CA last week, see our last blog post). We like our site at Casa Grande RV Resort, including the palm trees and the spaciousness.
We’ve gone a couple times over to Casa Grande Mountains for some hikes. The first one was a short out and back, but striaght up the mountain, very steep up and down. It was a good workout and we may do it again to see about beating our time. We also enjoyed the art painted on the rocks.
The second hike was just on the other side of the mountain, a moderately challenging loop with some elevation and beautiful cacti and views.
In addition to hiking, we’ve kept active with other workouts too. There is a pretty pond area with fountains and walking trails nearby, where we went to run/walk. Becky went to yoga a couple times at Love Always Yoga, where she enjoyed different types of yoga, including hot yin. And, the fitness center here at the RV Park is the largest we’ve seen yet, so it’s been great going over there most days for a workout. We’ve been mixing it up between strength training with weights and HIIT-style bodyweight workouts.
There is also a large billiards room here and we’ve gone to play a few times. Grant thought it was funny that the static made Becky’s hair stand up. We’ve enjoyed our new fire pit and popcorn and playing games. When we were leaving Quartzite a few weeks ago, we stopped by a game shop and picked up a new game that we had played at Amy’s game day, Forest Shuffle. It’s not as complex as some of the games, but a nice new addition to our game rotation.
One bummer has been this past week Poppa Fox has been sick. Apparently he got into something he wasn’t supposed to at the Rover and he had terrible diarrhea all week. Becky took him to the vet to get help. Luckily, his blood work was fine, just dehydrated, so they gave hime fluids and some meds. He’s just now feeling better the last 3 days. We’re glad he’s on the mend and it wasn’t something worse.
We can’t believe January is almost over. 😳 There’s lots more to explore around here, we’ll keep you posted! 😃
Is that Grant’s famous kettle corn? 👀 🍿
Sweet sweet Poppa Fox. Feel better soon!
