In the Desert Near Quartzsite, Arizona

Thursday, November 18, 2021

We spent four nights and three quiet days at Park Place RV in Quartzsite. The only time we ventured out was to ride out to Roadrunner BLM to spend time with some good friends and fellow Yoopers who had invited us to dinner. They had joined us for Happy Hour on Tuesday. 

While sitting out Tuesday afternoon all of a sudden I spotted

these guys coming across the road.

Our first Quail sighting this year.

We spent a lovely evening Wednesday at Kathy and Shane's

new home on wheels. We met this couple last year and it was 

nice to do some catching up and just enjoy the time together. 

Plus they fed us. Thanks for dinner guys.

We were up and moving early this morning as we 

the Stinger "B"had an appointment at RV Livestyles.

 

As I mentioned in a previous post we needed to get some work done on the motorhome and today was the day. They were able to fix our leaky pipe. Plus repair our slide seals. We thought they needed replacing but the technician said no they were in good shape and just needed some "tweaking". They also were able to get our new slide toppers on. We all thought the water pump problem had been solved as it was running as it should before we left. Once we got settled out at Roadrunner and used the pump a couple of times we could hear the same struggle. Tom will be making a call.

Regardless, we are Happy Campers right now. We are parked in one of our favorite spots out in the Roadrunner BLM. Interesting side note: our fellow Yoopers got here a couple weeks ago and when looking for a place to park remembered we had liked Roadrunner. The spot they chose to park in, that can be measured in feet, is just across the wash from our favorite spot. The interesting part they had no idea where we had actually parked out here. So besides being parked out in the beautiful desert we have special friends nearby.

Our first official desert sunset of this our 8th Adventure!

Sadly since the last time we were able to park here

two years ago this Saguaro died. Still beautiful.

I was not prepared to take a photo of the moon 

so this is with my short lens. 

The last of the light leaving on what was a good day!

A new day dawns and we are in the beauty of the desert to enjoy the moment. 

This day will be enjoyed as its beauty unfolds and we continue to live what is our retirement dream. 

We are glad you stopped by!
