Last Days at Quartzsite

Our last days in Quartzsite were going by quickly. Peg, Lew and Ray (and sometimes Ron) would walk each early morning for a few miles for some exercise. We had happy hours each evening and sat around the campfire talking for many of the nights. The stars were so bright out in the desert and you could see constellations protruding through the evening sky that you would normally not notice. Here is a photo of a morning gathering around the campfire ring!

We went back into Quartzsite for the show a few times as well as videotaped the interview with John from Truck System Technologies. We also bought a few necessities.


On one of the excursions, Peg bought some beads to make a necklace. Glenda who was part of our group told Peg she needed spacers and different wire to put it together. The next day Glenda, Jerry and Pam got together and got the necklace together after a broken clasp and wire. It came out nice.

Bob was talking to Rod and I about where he stores his sewer hose supports, back by the engine in a tube. I asked if I could see how he has it in the engine compartment and, upon opening the engine access door, was shocked because everything was gone! I happen to catch the look on his face with this photo when he realized it had worked itself out of the compartment and probably ended up on the road somewhere! Guess I won't utilize that spot as storage!!

We all were leaving tomorrow and we got a final picture of most of the Quartzsite crew for 2009. Hope we can make it back next year...
