Here we go with the first post!


Marlene, Mickey and Jerry.  Jerry is the "Jam Man" here in the park, and he provided all the great music for today's party.

A rough count was around 120 Plus people in attendance here today.

The Guests of Honor.  Frank and Ruth.  For 10 years they have been the managers of Lynda Vista RV here in Yuma.

Jim & Katie Ayers.  VROC friends and Lynda Vista neighbors.

Janet with the washtub bass, Jan Singing

Darrel & Rene

Jammin' Jerry sings us a ballad.

Janet adds a little bass to Jerry's guitar

This blog is just some random pictures.  If anyone wants a CD of all 166 pictures, just let me know.

Dale and Ev making an entrance to the festivities.

Jim & Katie, Dale and Ev.  Back row, so they can keep a good eye and the happenings. :-)

Happy Canadians

Bonnie has the voice of an Angel

Jim sings, plays piano, trumpet, guitar and wash tub bass.  Probably other instruments too!

Not a long way from the house, but I needed to carry food, chairs and the camera to the picnic, so I rode the work horse.

Jim & Katie soaking in the sun

Another group shot

My good neighbors;  Janet, Jerry & Mickey

More tables

The weather was perfect

Newlyweds, Anna & Dutch

Even though it's her party, Ruth still makes sure there is enough of everything

Bonnie may be too full to sing!

Jim, Bonnie and Janet


Lots of good food


Paul and Elston were busy at the grill

Lynda Vista Tube Steaks

Paul and Elston picking a good one for Frank

Like any smart man, Elston saves the juiciest and best for Ruth.

Pat was working, but came down in time for a snack and the cake ceremony.  Robert is still on crutches, but walking better after breaking his leg.

Ruth's beautiful cake!

Stan wrote and read a fine poem for Ruth

Ruth get emotional, Robert says a few heartfelt words

Bob in the middle of his speech.  

I'm glad they didn't drop it! :-)  Bob & Ruth showing the beautiful cake!  

Myrna and Rene presenting Ruth with the goodies.  Several nice gift certificates.

Everyone is a little "teary eyed"

I think this one may have been for the Casion.  Ruthie got a little excited :-)


Sold!  Looks like Rene is auctioning off Ruth's gifts :-)

After the food and fun, the Jammers went back to work with full tummys.

Whole lot of hugging going on

Ruth and Myrna sniffling, Jerry is getting all set up to play.  It was a heart warming afternoon.  Ruth and Frank deserved a party after 10 years of putting up with all of us in the park!  

Rene, always a smile and helpful hands.

Vickie and Pete got back just in time for the festivities today.  Robert is dishing her up a niece piece of cake.  Ruth is still in shock.

Jerry did an outstanding job of rounding up people to come play and help us celebrate.  And, we all appreciate all that Bob and Lynda, the park owners, do to make activities like this happen.

Anna goes back for  some very light dessert.  I saw her with a piece of celery :-)   Nice to see our "Newlyweds" out enjoying themselves!  You can see Dutch, her new husband in the background with the Retired Navy hat.

Beautiful hair in the evening sun.  Sorry I don't know this lady's  name,  but I'll find out and edit this post.
