Quartzsite, AZ – Thursday November 8, 2018
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.

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.

Organ Pipe Cactus National, AZ – Sunday October 21, 2018
Worked on leaking heater hose this morning.
I taped a line to my $29.17 NAPA 5/16th wrench in case I dropped it while tightening the hose clamp. Without this line the wrench would have fallen into the engine several times.
Tightened the clamp nut about 30 degrees of a full turn. Run the engine up to full temperature and no leak. After the engine cools down I will see if I can get a little more of turn on the nut, after I get the wrench on the nut i have just my finger tips as turning leverage.
Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, AZ – Friday October 19, 2018
The location of the “Ajo Border Patrol Station” is in the lower right hand corner of this picture. The town of Ajo is in the top left hand corner.
The light spot above the word WHY is the station.
In this picture you can see the square layout of the station about 100 yards north of the town Why, AZ and 10 miles south of Ajo, AZ. I guess they didn’t want to have a sign on the outside of the fence, “WHY BORDER PATROL STATION” and every time a border patrol person is ask what station they work out the answer would be, “Why.”
