Tuesday - Fruit and BBQ

When we were out in Quartzsite with the Ham Radio group, one of the couples had oranges and tangerines that they had picked from their own and their neighbor's trees (I think their neighbors are not coming to Mesa this year and so the Ham Radio couple is taking care of their yard and trees for them). We enjoyed them so much, and they had told us that we could get more once we got back to Mesa.

So, on Tuesday, Carl went over and got grapefruit, oranges, and tangerines.

Wow, are they fresh and DELICIOUS!

Miss Kitty wasn't too excited about the fruit... or anything else, other than a nap!

We had also gotten tickets for the food truck that was coming on Tuesday -- last week we pre-paid for two dinners and then on Tuesday went over to pick them up at the community center.

We were encouraged to drive over to get our meals... even though it is an easy walk or bike ride. I guess there is less contact between residents by driving in separate vehicles.

Since we were over at the community center, Carl went into the mail box area to check our mail... just once piece of boxholder mail from a local dentist.

We got one meal with chicken and one with pork and shared so we each had some of each meat. We both enjoyed the pork more, but it was all good.

It is nice that the resort is scheduling events like this. Usually there would be a cafe in the community center that would provide a place for gathering and meeting others. Bringing the food trucks in doesn't help with meeting others, but, I guess, provides a way for folks to get take-out food who don't want to leave the resort to get it. What a strange time this is!
