Becky's Birthday

Thursday, Feb. 12, 2015

Yuma, AZ

Becky ordered herself a new Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland last month and it arrived just days before her birthday.  We are loving her birthday present.  It is taking a while to learn all the new buttons including the start button.  No key??  It is a whole new world of cars.  Her birthday present from her children was a new iPod with bluetooth connection so she can play her music on the car stereo system.  No more CD players, just a lot of USB ports in the new cars.  For a price ($35 a month) you can turn your car into a wifi hot spot to get internet for all your devices anywhere.  Since we have Verizon internet, we passed on this option.  They did help her download her phone contact list into the car so we can make and receive calls or text messages via voice. Lots of fun stuff to explore.

Monday, Feb. 16, 2015 - Becky attended the Awards lunch for the Golf Challenge Tournament.  They caught this picture of her at the luncheon.  Our team of 5 players took first place in our division. We had the second best score for all the divisions.  

Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2015 - Wednesday's are Escapee Boomer Movie and dinner day.  It just happened to land on Becky's birthday so we joined 20 Boomers after the movie "Kingsman, Secret Service" at Mariscos Mar Azul for Seafood Mexican dinner.

All the Boomers sang Happy Birthday to Becky.

It is always fun to be surrounded by our RV friends on such a special occasion.

Fisher Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep allowed us to keep our Liberty for a week so we could get the new car outfitted with towing equipment and have this cover custom made for towing.

It fits really tight protecting the front and windshield from rocks and debris while hooked behind the Motorhome.  We had to practice putting it on.  Specialty Sewing Senter here in Yuma makes these towing covers in a day.  They took the car at 8:00 and had it finished by 5:00.  It is felt lined and clips or snaps around the fenders and front grill.

Saturday, Feb. 21, 2015 - We took a drive to Imperial, CA to have dinner with Tense and Idell Burden.  Becky finally got her birthday cake in the form of a Red Cake Cupcake from Costco.  It is nice to enjoy a week of birthday instead of just a day.

Becky and Lonnie
