One of the two pools

Resort entrance
After coffee, computer and TV, we went outside and sat in the sun for awhile.  It was cool but the sun made it very pleasant.  From where we were sitting we can see the tops of the mountains to north and west.  After a while one of the grounds keepers warned us that the sprinklers were going to run where we were sitting.  We did get ourselves and the chairs off the lawn before the watering started.
Neva is still feeling some of the effects of her cold, but seems to be improving.
Gerri and I walked to the office and got a picking basket.  We then picked some more lemons and a few tangerines from trees on the property.
I worked through my prescribed exercises before supper time, I keep thinking they should get easier.  There is a TV channel here in Palm Springs that shows old TV shows.  A couple of episodes of the Rifleman helped me get through the exercises.
Free fruit, how good does it get?

For supper we planned a salad using the left over salmon from yesterday.  We did have that with some of the tangerinse in it.  Most of the tangerines had been on the tree too long and had dried up quite a bit.  Before our salad we had some grapefruit and cheese.  The grapefruit was excellent, it must ripen at a different time than the tangerines.
Picking Tangerines
After supper we did some more of what we have become good at, we relaxed some more.  TV, computer and reading topped off the evening.
