Afternoon!!

Good Afternoon!

   What's up? Well, Elise is just about to kick off her marathon bridge game and I am in Chris's house caring for him. Yes, I just opened a cervasa and it is ice cold and so good.

    Here is a bit more about our stay-cation in Bisbee, Douglas and the mountains. Enjoy!

14 Sept 12

Elise got up at 8:30am and I did not get up until 9:00am. I didn't sleep well due to a dream that I had about my Mother. It was a bit scary and worrisome.

We grabbed some breakfast at the Lodge and then we packed up and we checked out of our rooms. We headed for Douglas to doing some grocery shopping at the WalMart and at a Carnacia. 

We loaded up on supplies and snacks and then we began our drive to the mountains. We arrived at the  cabin and we opened it up and we unloaded he Tacoma. 

We got the fire pit going but it took a while because the wood was a little damp, but we did it. We sat around pit and we downed a few cocktails. We had Jack and Cokes and Bobby had Southern Comfort and Coke. It was very relaxing and peaceful.

There is some water running in the creek next to the cabin but not a whole lot. We saw were a bear had scratched and clawed at the wood post at the back of the cabin.Wow!

We prepared dinner before it got too dark outside. I grilled hot dogs, and brats. Elise cooked up some pork and beans and chili con carne. We also had cottage cheese, onions and chips. Of course we were well supplied with Jack and Coke and plenty of Southern Comfort for Bobby.

It was just nice to be sitting outside listening to the water run in the creek, and enjoying the fire pit. It started to get a little cool and Elise had to put on  along sleeve shirt and long pants. What's up with that, huh?

So we called it a night at around 8:30pm. It was a long day and we were a bit tired. Here are a few pics. Enjoy!

What beautiful pictures! The cabin reminds me of a cabin Jim and I have gone to in Forest Lakes, in northern Arizona. It's rustic - no T.V, no internet connection and, only after fooling with an antenna, could we get a radio station. It was wonderful!

Hope things are going well.

Buongiorno!
