Quartzsite – Parker, AZ – Thursday Feb 13, 2020
This is how I had my morning coffee.
Today we drove up to Parker, AZ where Richard and Vickie have been all winter. They have a spot right on the river. People wait years to get one of these stops. A friend of their’s who talked them into coming to Parker for the winter was in the park office last fall when someone canceled their reservations. Bobbie called Vickie about the site and they took it. The office person must have been mad at all the other people on the waiting list.
