Desert Dry

Something I must have with me AT ALL TIMES is chapstick. Otherwise my lips would crack and fall off! I use the term 'chapstick' loosely though. When I use the brand name stuff - I have to reapply every hour or so. I found some 'organic' lip balm at a natural food store in Austin and I only need it once or twice a day ... a good find. Being a Florida girl, you learn not to leave a box of crackers open overnight - they'll be soggy and worthless in the morning. Here, I left a box on the counter ... wide open ... for a couple days. When I decided to clean up I almost tossed the crackers. Before tossing them, I picked one out and bit into it. Crunchy, crispy as the day it hit the shelf! Amazing. So, we're still hanging out at Palm Creek and helping people with the WiFi. We've gone to the gym a couple more times. I think our main motivation is our 'treat' in the jacuzzi afterward! I wonder how much water they need to add every day in order to keep up with evaporation? Next week we'll be heading back to Quartzsite to spend Christmas with Lynne, John, Frankie and Dick.
