I missed posting this photo from a couple of days ago. When I opened the blinds I saw this amazing sunrise, so I ran outside in my housecoat and took a photo of it.

Moving day is upon us. As it will only take about an hour and a half to drive to the Quartzsite we are not in a hurry, especially as it is cold out there …. Around freezing with a cold north wind. There was time to walk the dogs and take some photos of the park before we packed up.

La Paz Valley RV park is in the desert about 6 miles south of Quartzsite. We booked this park, sight unseen and as it was a very good price my expectations were low --- I was thinking it was a parking lot with services. Happily, my expectations were exceeded. The park is gravel but the roadway in is paved (that was a big bonus as its 2 miles in from the highway). The sites are delimited by rocks, white quartz, black rocks, pink rocks, etc, there are several cactus gardens plus there is a clubhouse. The laundry room only has 2 washers and dryers so Carol and I will be making the trek into town to do laundry, but its nice that there are a couple of washers and dryers in case we need to do an emergency load.

There's an empty site between John and Carol's trailer and ours as we are awaiting the arrival of Esther and Jim, another couple we met at Oleander Acres. Esther and Jim are also spending this season traveling.
