On to Quartzsite

Everytime we think that we are getting good at this moving stuff, something goes wrong. Doug went outside to dump the tanks before we left the park this morning. And the septic system for the park was full. We couldn't empty our tanks!

Now, when you are going into the desert to boondock for a week, you have to have empty tanks to start. Doug was not a happy camper. We ended up having to drive to a nearby county park and pay $10 to use their dump station.

Then, a picture got bumped and the glass shattered. The day was not off to a great start. Oh yeah, it's the 13th! But everything smoothed out and we started east on I-10. Within the hour we were parked in the desert about 5 miles north of Quartzsite.


It's pretty easy to set up the coach when you have to power or water to hook up. We put the jacks down, opened the slides and put the solar shades on the window. We're home!

We are attending the Desert Rat Rally in time for all of the shows at Quartzsite. By tomorrow, there should be lot more coaches in the pictures. Our little group is expecting about 150 Alpine coaches.



And just for you Mom B. Another sunset.
