LEFT EARLY THIS MORNING, WEATHER WAS GOOD, NO WIND. A COOL 47 DEGREES.
THE ROAD WAS GREAT. NO TRAFFIC. EVERYONE WAS EITHER SLEEPING OR AT CHURCH.
(NOTE: CALIFORNIA ROADS ARE IN NEARLY AS BAD SHAPE AS QUEBEC ROADS)
HEADED SOUTH, MADE GREAT TIME AND DROVE THROUGH SPECTACULAR SCENERY.
WE WERE PLANNING TO STAY OVERNIGHT IN QUARTZSITE. OVER 200,000 MOTORHOMES GO THERE YEARLY. WHY?? IT IS A WIDE SPOT IN THE ROAD, AND THEY HOLD GIANT FLEA MARKETS THERE. AND ROCK&GEM SHOWS. PEOPLE PARK THEIR MOTORHOME ON UNSERVICED LOTS AND SPEND UP TO 3 MONTHS FREE....
BUT THERE IS A BOOKSTORE, AND THIS IS THE OWNER ---
SKEDADDLED OUT OF THERE AND MADE IT TO MESA.
336 MILES TODAY, BUT AT AUTO SPEED. GOT THERE A DAY EARLIER THAN PLANNED. WILL CHECK OUT A FEW PLACES TOMORROW, TO SEE IF WE WANT TO COME BACK FOR THE WINTER OF 2009.
RIGHT NOW, 5:30 pm, SUNSHINE AND 76 DEGREES. BUT I BET IT'S GONNA COOL OFF.
