Quartzsite, Day 2


Desert scrub (no sand, just dirt & crushed rock)

Saturday, Jan 28…

Easy day, and good weather (high in the 60s w/ light wind). Got 3 good walks in by traipsing through various camping areas. Like I mentioned yesterday, it’s not really crowded where we are, but there are clumps of RVs scattered for miles outside of Quartzsite. Our group gathered for a potluck and campfire this evening. I was amazed at how much food appeared (I still only count 22 rigs in our cluster). There was a fun around-the-circle sharing time after we ate. Lots of praise for the increasing number of women drivers (and instructors), and several men commented that while they do most of the driving, their wives do the parking. A lot of full-timers – one couple for something like 30 years!


These tracks are shiny dried
mud - barely any stones in them.
They end just as abruptly at
the top of the picture.

Lots of space, lots of RV clusters.

Gathering for the potluck.

Campfire 😃

  1. Cynthia likes the cactus and the fire. I like to hear that sharing circle time was fun - it sounds like Cynthia's preschool for adults!

    While one year certainly isn't enough to see the whole country, it's enough for one RV road trip. 30 years sounds really long... I'd be exhausted.
