A jeep ride to see some blooms......

 

Our Location: 

Road Runner BLM, Quartzsite, Arizona

 

A nice start to the morning, not too chilly but I don't recall the sun shining. It may have but I don't remember it. I do know it was cloudy for the day, not a dreary cloud cover just over cast. Riley and I headed off for a walk this morning after we packed away all of the outside stuff in preparation for our move tomorrow. 

 

Some very nice views.

An abundance of Teddy Bear Cholla.

We headed into town for a garbage run, some diesel and a quick stop at Kuehn Street for a quick peek. Back home I gave the Dogsled a rapid vacuum to remove the first layer of Yuma hair and a bit of dust. I'll give it a better going over as the winter passes and into the spring. Yuma's hair gets everywhere and is tough to get out of the carpet. 

 

 

Riley opted to stay home but we Deb's, with Tom as chauffeur, headed off in search of some desert blooms. We hung a right at Plomosa BLM and headed off toward Bouse. Some great views and while I didn't take a lot of pics, the sights were well worth the drive. I would even consider staying in the area in the future. Cell service went the rounds with Verizon losing out, T-Mobile and AT & T seemed to pick up the most bars. 

 

 

Lots of rigs out here.

 

We found some beautiful purple and white bunches of blooms on the roadside.

We found some blooms as we headed toward Parker. Not masses and masses but enough to see how pretty the area will be in a bloom. It would be wonderful see such a thing. 

 

 

Back home, I had a very late lunch, Riley and I cleaned up and I'm uploading and editing photos for the blog. A bit later I'll call my dad for a quick chat. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed your visit. 

 

Between my shaking and the wind blowing we managed to cut off the very edges of the bloom.

 

Until next time...

 

Take care, stay safe,
