The rose garden was here when we bought this place and we want to keep it going as if nothing else as a rememberance of the former owner. AZ is pretty bleak so this is kind of nice..

Now our back deck which Terry built and the hot tub which is SO nice. 

Speakin of the Tucson Gem Shows here a a pic our good friends who have a vender site at this huge event.

This is just one event site of like 40 other sites around Tucson. They come from around the world to Tucson.

Our good friends Bob and Jeanne had a vendor booth this year at the Kino show site.
 We met them many years ago at the Quartzsite Rock Club. 

Getting the 5th wheel ready for the summer/fall travals. Terry has been working on using 

Maguiers One Marine One-Step Compound

This advanced aggressive, yet safe compound will clean and restore gloss to the gel coat surface in one step. Removes moderate to heavy oxidation, scratches, stains and tough water spots. Restores color and leaves a rich gloss on the treated surface. Incredible results by hand or machine.
And let me tell you it works great. We had removed some decals and now you can't tell where they were at before. On our last 5th wheel we went through the sanding the gel coat and more ... This does it all without all that work. 
Aslso using Rhino Shine to referbish the bed of our truck.  UV had done it's thing and painting on this retories the shine. I had done this years ago and it needed it again. I does restore to like new. 

When we are here we get our Dr appointments done. So have completed visits to Eye Dr., Teeth cleaning, Wellness  physicals, Renal Dr.,  Cardiologists, and  Electrophysiologist Heart Dr., (I have  asystematic  A-Fib). After the visit to my EP I now have a secehuled procedure for a Medtronic Arctic Front Advance ST Cryoballoon for A-Fib on April 11. This is where they go up through my leg to my heart (much like putting in heart stint) but in this case they position a baloon which inflates and fills with coolant ( about -70 deg) to ablate the tissue where the pulmonary veins enter the left atrium.
I am looking forward to this as it is a elective procedure. It used to the last choice for this condition but  this new procedure is more like a first choice procedure. They used to use RF to burn the parts of the heart but with this they freeze which only takes about 2 hours unlike the other was more like 4-6 hours. I take meds to stop me from going into A-Feb and after this hope to get off of them.

We went to the 44th Anunal 4th Ave Street Fair in Tucson today. They get about 300,000 people over three days at this event. It is a big deal. And a fubulious time to be sure. People watching at it's best. And I was having so mush fun I didn't event snap pics on may smartphone. It was a mass of people . You just sort of move with the crowd.  The best part is you can park west of I-10 and take the SunLink Electric Street Trolly right  to the south end of the event. Parking not a problem as with free parking just hop on the trolly for $4 for a round trip. Money well spent...

Walked for blocks and blocks which I am not used to doing. Did stop time to time to rest and people watch.

This goes on for many blocks.
4th Ave Street Fasir combines old and new.
