VDO Nov '10 #2

Our site at Valle del Oro is #1354. Here is our nice (concrete, level) patio. We set up the table,chairs and BBQ. In bg is Mom's scooter, Becca and my bikes
Among the wildlife in the park are quail. This is not a very good pic. They scamper (is that a proper quail verb?) among the shrubs.
Int. Exercise Room. Yonder are the treadmills--that's my primary machine.
Here is the big swimming pool. In fg is one of two hot tubs.
A short distance away is the lap pool. This is the "pool area" that Becca and I prefer.
This is what they call the "Ballroom". On Thanksgiving they had a sit down turkey dinner here for 1000.
There is a lending library
On the left are the P.O. boxes, where we can receive snailmail
At the Activity Center you can get tickets for events and ask questions not covered in the monthly newsletter
And one of the reasons we feel we have found our tribe--a Mac Computer Room, where we are thinking of taking a course or two--since Ganon and Jon are so far away.

There is so much there you make you feel at home, it is no wonder you are enjoying it better than Needles. It seems like a great community feeling is found there as well. Glad you have a nice warm place to winter, as we trekked to church in falling snow with it stuck to the cars and roads and sidewalks. The stuff is everywhere and still falling.

I'm glad you found such a nice place. I think it will be less "cool" in June though. ;o)
