Wednesday Happy Hour and BBQ - still going strong!

Those of us left at the Park have decided to continue the Wednesday Night Happy Hour and BBQ for at least the next few weeks...we had a good crowd of about 16 people last evening and a great time with plenty of people staying and cooking and enjoying dinner together.

The Crowd!




We even had some live music by the Luminators our own resident musicians!


Mark and Paul (The Luminators) played a great mix of Bluegrass, Folk and Gospel for our entertainment then they enjoyed dinner with all of us.

We had a great time and ended the evening well after 8 O'Clock!

Stay tuned while we wind down the season at Twentynine Palms RV Resort!

Chili Night in the Clubhouse!

Last night was the last Saturday night dinner in the Clubhouse for the season - It was chili and all the sides supplied by a few of our winter residents. We had 4 large crockpots full of different chili's to try and a table full of bread, crackers, dip and toppings for the chili.

We had a larger than expected crowd with over 40 people, there was just enough chili for the crowd. There was desert and ice cream after the chili was finished!


Big Crowd!



Good Friends and Conversation!



For those who wanted to heat it up a bit!


Great Dip for starters!


At the end of the evening ALL the chili was gone, every pot empty!





Our Wednesday Evening BBQ's will continue well into April so more fun to come, make plans to join us!

Blog Update - Spring Has Sprung!

Several things happen in the Spring in Twentynine Palms RV Resort...

Almost daily a crowd gathers to wave goodbye to one of our winter residents. Wishing them safe travels and many times plans to meet-up during the summer, it's a combination of happy and sad times.

GoodBye!





Ice Cream Social

We held our last ice cream social of the season, smaller crowd than normal due to people leaving, although we did have a few "travel throughs" join us. Travel throughs are people on their way from someplace else back to home or onto summer travels.



The other thing that spring brings is our park flowers begin to bloom!





Even our Park Cactus are in bloom!


Our Saturday night dinner tonight is furnished by several of our guests and is Chili! My chili is cooking!



There will be more pictures of all the chili and fun tonight on tomorrows update!

Still tons of fun here at the Park as the season winds down!

Twentynine Palms Resort Blog Update - March 19th, 2016

Our Saturday night dinners are winding down for the season - this was the last home cooked meal by the kitchen staff...next Saturday evening we have our annual Chili Cookoff by the remaining residents.

We had a nice turn-out of over 40 for a great spaghetti dinner with salad and fresh bread!


After dinner the first on the dance floor were some young guests!


Then the line dancers cranked up!


Another rousing rendition of YMCA!



Always time for some slower dances!



Friends and conversation!


We all will miss Pat Jennette and husband John our activity directors for the past three years. Pat on the right in the above picture. They will not be back next year, selling house in PA and heading to Florida for next winter, but they promise to return. Thanks for all your hard work, Pat and John and good luck in your travels!


The group also got together with our DJ for a going away picture - this was his last week to play for us.

Still a few things planned for the next few weeks, so stay tuned and check the activity calendar!

Twentynine Palms RV Resort - Bonfire and other extras!

There is always something going on at the park...from Bonfires, Texas Holdem, Ice Cream Socials, Ladies Tea and conversation and just plain fun in the desert.

Last weeks Bonfire was canceled due to wind and rain, so Thursday evening a group of about 20-25 people gathered behind the Clubhouse for a Bonfire, Smores and friendly conversation!

Bonfire!


Smores!



And a little "High Stakes" Poker...



Big Pot - must be a dollar or more there!


And when you want to sit out by the RV and enjoy the clear cool evening you get rewarded with a wonderful Desert Sunset in the Park!



The season is winding down with many people scheduled to leave this coming week...we wish them a safe journey, for those still staying for a few more weeks, there is more fun planned.

Stay Tuned for more fun - see the schedule below!
