Happy St. Patrick's Day

I think everyone has a bit of Irish in them on St. Paddy’s Day.  I’m Irish and proud of it, and Mike has a bit of Irish but very seldom admits it, but then he is polish.

Charles and Mike installed a new water pump in the MH today, the original one stopped working.  Lucky for us Mike had a spare.

Charles and Mike were just wrapping up the installation when Ken and LeeAnn showed up.  They were on their way back from Long Beach CA were they spent a week with friends.

The fence is quit the structure.  I m not really sure how long it is everything I have read gives me a different length.  I know it is not one continuous structure it stops and starts many times.  If you click on the fence link you can read a little more about it.  Everywhere you look there are cameras on the electrical poles, microphones and lighting.  Less then 5 minutes of entering the fence area 3 border patrol vehicles pulled up to to check us out, or maybe it was just break time.

We had a great visit with Ken and LeeAnn and will see them again in Apache Junction when we return for our warranty work on the MH.
