SHOPPING, SHOPPING, SHOPPING

An early dinner at Cracker Barrel, after lots of shopping.
 
We made an attempt yesterday, to erase Nancy's bad service appointment experience the previous day at La Mesa RV, with lots of shopping.  Our first stop was a new business on the frontage road, not far from our RV park, that had a little bit of everything.  We all found some stuff, and hey, they had free popcorn, so what more could you ask for?  Next stop was the Yuma Marketplace.  Over the years, this combination of a flea market, and  semi permanent businesses, has been the source of lots of purchases that would otherwise have been difficult to find.  We've been coming to the Marketplace for years, and yep, there was a bunch of stuff that we simply couldn't live without.  The number of vendors has decreased over the years, but it's still a popular shopping destination, with a food court, and free musical entertainment.

From the flea market, we stopped at a local Sprint store, where they repaired Nancy's MiFi device that had stopped working.  The good news with that experience, was it got fixed, and there was no charge.  Hey, things are starting to look up!

We topped off the afternoon with an early dinner at the local Cracker Barrel, where I had my usual roast beef dinner that is always delicious.  When we got back to the RV park, there was a musical jam session about to take place in the activity room.  When we arrived, a few minutes after it started, there were no more seats, so after a couple of songs, we called it a day, and retired to the motor homes.
