Monday:

New Years Eve: 

We went to dinner with Janice and David to Line Thai for an early dinner.  We picked them up around 6:00 and headed to the restaurant.  We had eaten at Line Thai once and really liked it.  Janice and David trusted our judgment on the place to eat.  We had a wonderful dinner.  After dinner we headed back to the camper where we played Phase 10 until close to midnight.  We have not been up until midnight for years.  We watched the ball drop in New York and then several other cities as we waited for midnight here in Sun City.    We toasted the new year champagne!   This was a wonderful New Years Eve. 


Tuesday: 

Happy New Year!! 

Having been up late on New Years Eve, we slept in on New Years day.  After breakfast, we watched the Rose parade.  After the parade we started watching some football, before we went out for a walk.  While on our walk, we met Janice, who asked us if we wanted to go for a hike.  So back home we went to get ready to go with them.  They picked us up a few minutes later.  We headed for Thunder bird Preserve, where we hiked for about 2 hrs.  It was a beautiful day to take a hike.  I was so excited to see so many families out hiking too.  There were lot and lots of people on the trails.  It was nice to see so many families there and not watching football on TV. 

After our hike, we drove over to check out another trail to hike another day.  Then took a drive up around pinnacle peak.  We ended up at a brew pub for dinner.  We got back home close to dark. 
My hips were sore, so I spent the rest of the night resting in the chair. 

All in all it was a wonderful day.
