We have moved....

 

Our Location: 

 

Between MM 91 -90, AZ 95 South Bound, Quartzsite, AZ

 

Today was moving day, a mixed up one but we all made it to our new home dirt safely. Riley and I pulled out of Saddle Mountain BLM amid a swarm of flies and dust. We were happy to leave it in the rear view mirror. In order to avoid construction we turned left on Courthouse Road, which took us to Harquahala (pronounced Hark- qua- hala) Valley Road, and to I-10 West missing the intended rest area where we were to meet Doug & Yuma (http://missadventuretravels.blogspot.com/ ). However we stopped at the next rest area and eventually heard from Doug who was still at least 30 miles away. Riley and I pulled out and headed on to our destination leaving Doug & Yuma to come behind. A very short ride had us making our way through Q or Quartzsite (without a single photo) and headed south on AZ 95.

Not signs we Ontario folks see often.

A few years ago we found a very good site out here and friends Deb & Tom (tdcelebratingthedance.blogspot.com   ) parked with us for a while. This was the spot we were hoping to find. Well we didn't find it while towing but we did find a good spot and have settled in right here for a while. Doug & Yuma arrived before we were completely set up. I took the Dogsled to the roadway and waited until they arrived and followed me in.  We have 3 or 4 bars on AT&T.

 

That is the Kofa Mountains over there.

Here is home dirt for a while, between MM 91-90 SB on AZ 95.

 

Called Dad to tell him we have arrived at our next spot for a while. Seems they have flurries or white stuff on the ground. Oh my, it's too early yet, but it is what it is. I was reluctant to tell him of our lack of snow  although we do have a bit of ice on the fins of the fridge if that's of any consolation!! 

 

 

Yuma was throwing up dust when he was racing to meet me.

I believe this may be a pencil cactus, or it might not.

A walk later in the day and I found the spot we were looking for, we were so close, only about 100 yards or so away. Oh well, this one is nice too. At this point Riley and I have no plans moving forward. Something we'll have to decide as time goes along. 

 

A Saguaro and a Palo Verde tree in tight quarters.

Look, no picky things!!!

 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit. 

 

This is the road I was looking for but couldn't find. Someone asked me how we find spots......

Pick one, any one at all will do.They are all beautiful and flat.

 

Until next time....

 

I found the spot Deb. The unique Saguaro is almost gone.

It was a vibrant green in 2020.

 

Take care, be safe, 

 

It's beautiful even in death.

Those two white dots on the left are us, the Igloo and the White Lion. Kofa Mountains ahead.
