Friends leave and the warmth is gone.....

 

 

Our Location: 

Road Runner BLM, Quartzsite, Arizona

 

You know it's windy in the desert when you have a wind warning on the phone. So I won't comment on the wind. However the sun isn't showing itself either or at least not for long periods, mere minutes only and the temps are barely breaking into the non shiver range. The forecast high is 63F/17C but I don't think we will reach that number today and if we do it won't feel like it with the wind chill. 




 

Ken and Shirley decided to pack up and head for home this morning with the wind acting as a tail booster they should do well on the fuel mileage. We were sad to see them go but we understand the decision and wish them a safe journey. We have only met them once previous to this year and so we have enjoyed getting to know them a little more and look forward to more meetings in the future. 

 




Inside happy hour in the Stinger B today. Laughter is always present and a good time is had by all. There are no shortage of things to talk about and we seem to talk for hours. We manage to pick up right where we left off the last time. 

 




Riley is under the weather the past few days with a sinus issue, hopefully it clears up soon. Between the wind and the dust I think she's finding this year a difficult one. 



 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have all had a wonderful Valentine's Day! 

 

Until next time....

 

Take care, stay safe,

Another windy day....friends leave....

 

Our Location: 

North of MM 4, Ogilby Road, Winterhaven, California

 

The wind howled all morning, blowing dust everywhere. Our friends Ken and Shirley pulled out this morning but we hope to see them again soon. We hugged, said our goodbyes and waved as they pulled away. 

 


 


 

The rest of us sat around for a while but soon the dust drove us into our homes. The winds howled off and on for a long time today. However by late afternoon the wind had died down significantly and we spent some time outside for afternoon happy hour. Soon I was heading home and chatting with my dad, catching up on all the news from our Rock. 

 




 

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you had a great day. 

 

Until next time.... 

 

Take care, stay safe,
