A relaxing day today. 

The bus and car was cleaned, laundry was done and some general housekeeping. 

We had to do some grocery shopping which we did also.

In the afternoon we went to the Lost City Museum.  This city was lost when Lake Mead was made larger due to the flooding for the Hoover Dam.

 Much of the artifacts were divided between museums and the universities  but as the water came up the city was lost. In 2003 during record lows of the lake, parts of the city could be recovered again, and more artifacts were retrieved.

For dinner we had spaghetti, salad and bread, another yummy meal.  I am really going to have to hit the gym when I get back to work.

Special People today – thinking of Eric Rinas, and his family, to help them all cope with the cancer he has.  God Bless you Eric, hope for a speedy recovery.
