My Life and Travels
Back to Quartzsite for a couple of nights.
The triangle is where we are today the dot just below it is where we were the first of the week.
I want to wash and wax the drive’s side of the coach before we head north. Where the coach sits in the backyard it is difficult to wax this side.
81 today low 56.
Back to Quartzsite for a few days, highs 80-83 lows 56-60.

We like it here this time of year. In December and January people will be parked all over this area with only a couple of feet between coaches. There will be a lot of generators running, we enjoy the quiet.
A HORRIBLE day, today was our first time we moved without Hank.
Not many people here this time of year, think it was 90 degrees today.
At 8:10 this morning Range RV called and said they would be able to look at our brake right now, we were there in 5 minutes. Carlos pulled the front wheels and this time it was obvious the inside rotor seals were where the fluid was coming from. Carlos worked all morning and we backed out of Range RV at 12:15.
Drove across the street and back to coach up to the pickup, hooked up the tow bar and lights and we headed toward Quartzsite.
A lot more people here this year than last. We will be here until Monday Feb 19 when we move to Goodyear and our month of baseball.
I love the smell of Rum & Coke in the morning, makes me think about Navy A School in Pensacola, Florida Jan-May 1970.
Back on the road working our way north. We are at Hi Jolly 14 day free BLM area just north of Quartzsite.
Today’s drive:

We made it to sunshine and warmth.
Today’s drive.
Same area we where last year at this time. Will move on towards Phoenix tomorrow, baseball starts early this year than last year. First game is Saturday 2/25 last year started 3/1 or 3/2.
The warm sun is nice!
Sunday was a day to explore the area. We were out looking at the different BLM lands to stay on.

We will leave here Tuesday morning for Goodyear, AZ (about 105 miles east) with our first Mariner’s game at 1:10 on Tuesday March 2, 2016.
Here is our home in the desert:
WordPress as added a new feature since I’ve posted a bunch of pictures. When selecting a group of pictures wordpress creates the format.
And this is our view:
Rainbow with no rain.
This rainbow in the thin clouds was really cool, beautiful day 85 inside the motorhome.
Last night I got out and played with the 4.33 inch telescope Brian and Christine gave me for Christmas. I looked at a planet (don’t know which one) and a bunch of stars. I also spent a while looking at the moon, know that was cool, I actually knew what I was looking at. I will get out and look at stars again tonight. After our drive down here I was really tired last night, the kind of tired where you feel yourself running out of gas.
Finally made it to Quartzsite, Az and the Hi Jolly 14 day boondocking area.
Only 18 miles today.
We are in site 1384.
It is a desert area where you parking where ever you’d like to stay. Weather is great 85 and clear.
