Onward

It's a relief to hear from travelers when they reach home.   They relay stories of hotel worries, closed restaurants, traffic, and headaches through airports.  "There's no place like home" rings very true in times like this.

Although we know they would rather be here to continue their escape from winter.  They send photos and woeful stories about missing our sunshine and warmer temps.

I think our remaining residents are being safe here.  I'm sure they're using social distancing during their happy hour congregations?  Our weather has been gorgeous with mid to upper 70s so it is a true pleasure to be outdoors.  

We observed a golf cart parade tonight with nine carts of followers as they cruised around the streets.  At least there are 6 feet between carts!  😁

Per yesterday's posting, don't forget about the food truck visit this coming Wednesday from 4 to 6:00.  It will provide a bit of a diversion for us.

The final tally is in from the big Cancer Awareness weekend and events!

Palm Creek presented a very large check ($35,100)  to the Alliance Cancer Support Center located in Casa Grande.   Money was lovingly raised by residents, guests, and sponsors during a Cancer Awareness Fundraiser at the end of January 2020.     (Pictured from left to right:  Scott Houle, General Manager; Kembly Mourelo, Executive Director for the Center; and Marion Nelson, Event Manager)
