Interesting Day...72º 10am

Sunday morning we found our way to the Winco store to buy groceries for the rest of the week...There are grocery stores closer to the condo but the traffic was light and we wanted to familiarize ourselves with phoenix...After two years it has changed a lot, with more shopping malls, housing developments and improved roads...Herb can always get us where we want to go even when the Garmin doesn't find the right way.

Back at the condo we had just enough time to put stuff away, change clothes and get to the Arizona Broadway Theatre for the matinee performance of Les Miserables...Herb and I sort of knew the story line but neither had read the book or seen any version...It didn't take Herb long to remove his hearing aids as everything was very loud...What torture we go through in the name of culture...The acting and voices were superb and we kind of got the drift...We had opted out of dinner but split a decadent chocolate dessert with ice cream, then sat back to "enjoy" the rest of the performance.

Play Bill

Our plan was to eat dinner at the "Olive Garden" but it was full with a waiting line so we went back to the "Haymaker" for fish/chips, nachos and I had a margarita and Herb a beer...I used to enjoy margaritas but they have either changed them or my taste has changed... I got the deluxe $5.00 one, sure wonder what the $3.00 one would have tasted like.

Seemed like a long day when we got back to the condo, so again sat on the balcony and watched the pool activity...Not near as many people or as much noise as Saturday night...Can't help but think of Cienna as we watch the kids on the slide and in the pool having so much fun...They were still playing water games when we turned in for the night, at 9pm...Hugs To All....OWAV:)
