Christmas at Big River

This Christmas is a little different for us.  Because we are spending Christmas with Larry and Joyce, we have met alot of people and done  alot of activities. By Christmas, we will have done 6 potlucks, 3 for dinner and 3 for snacks and 2 white elephant gift exchanges. Busy, busy, busy.

We bring some Christmas decorations but not many.  Storage on an RV is limited, so I don't want to take up a lot of space with things that won't be up for  long. We did buy a new artificial  Christmas tree. It is about 2' high, white flocking with red poinsettia's.  One strange thing I have noticed.  We haven't seen any places that sell real trees. I know Parker is very small, but we didn't even see any in Lake Havasu, which has around 42,000 people. We got lost, so we even saw more of the city than we had planned. No real Christmas trees.  Can't believe that everyone uses an artificial one. I'll just show you our new additions.


Our new tree


New poinsettia.  Pot says " Dear Santa, Define good"



Saw this Santa on our walks in the morning. Looks like he likes this mode of transporation better than reindeer


 This Santa Claus greets you as you enter the park. On the right edge you can see the water. The road leads to the boat ramp
