Where are we today ?
This morning a beautiful moon setting behind the mountains. Looks so wonderful. Sunrise, I kinda missed by was awesome too. Looking east and west all at the same time, got me all confused!
Driving about town early you get to see the water trucks, soaking the roads to keep the dust down.

| one of a few water trucks |
Back home by 8 am and Suzie has the laundry ready for me to head out to get things all cleaned up. Laundromat around the corner and it is huge! A very busy place too. 36 dryers there and even more washing machines.
 |
| the laundry is busy |
Less than one hour got three loads all washed and dried and a bonus here if you want to have a shower only $6.00 for one person about 9 showers they have here, just like a truck stop.
 |
across the street is the Roadrunner Market,
good selction of produce and cheap booze. |

Laundry done and checked out the dump station, only about 7 rigs in line. So back home we secured our coach and got there by 11:am (gotta beat the rush before the weekend) We got in line and were able to dump our sewage and fill our fresh water tank in about and hour, then back to home dirt. Not a big deal we can sit at home and read a book or sit in line to dump our sewage, read a book in either place, no problem.

While we had the coach on the road stopped by a graphics place to get a quote on a new picture for the back of our coach, looks good, will let you now how it goes in a week or so.
 |
| back over I-10 lots more rv's here today |
Now back hone to relax in the shade and enjoy our books for a while, Lady Girl dropped by to visit and Suzie got her doggie fix.
We had decided to go to Silly Al's to enjoy their famous pizza. Beat the crowds that will happen in the next week or so and we were lucky to reserve a table for the 6 of us at 3:30 pm. Happy hour here from 3:30 till 5:30. $7.00 for a pitcher of beer, like wow! More than double that back in Ontario Canada!
You have not been to Quartzsite until you have been to Silly Al's !

| this be us best picture that we got |
 |
Suzie and I shared a nice house salad
|
 |
then an amazing medium meat lovers pizza,
olives and Jalapenos on my half,
we could not finish it and took some home |
Now back to home dirt we fired up our propane fire pit and really enjoyed a wonderful warm evening, being mellow, a few stories and lies after a filling, tasty meal.
 |
| yep all was good |
 |
saw some rockets, or space ships in the sky,
not sure but was interesting |
Ok, that was a busy enough day, time to veg, thanks for stopping on by and hope you all had a great one too.

Pizza and beer - doesn't get any better than that.
ReplyDeleteYou right and booth were excellent !
DeleteWe're thinking we just might hit the laundry tomorrow ... heck, maybe even a good long shower! A return trip to Silly Al's is something we'll probably do too. We've had great pizza there in the past so they should be entitled to another try to make up for the last one we had.
ReplyDeleteHope you get a good Pizza this time, all three of ours were excellent. Always a busy place too as you know.
DeleteThat laundromat/shower facility is pretty impressive. Somebody had a good idea. I can just imagine how hectic it will get on the weekend. Eeee.
ReplyDeleteEveryplace will be hectic this weekend, we won't be driving too far, can walk.
DeleteI've had laundry ready to go to the laundromat for two days and haven't made it yet. Hopefully today. I think the message for me in this is that I have too darn many clothes with me. Maybe that's why I have to keep reorganizing to fit things in!
ReplyDeleteToo many clothes could be a problem but not is our house, 1 in 1 out keeps the space about right.
DeleteGood planning to get it all done before the really big crowds hit town.
ReplyDeleteWe know the crowds will be horrendous for most of the next week.
DeletePlease enjoy yourself enough for us too. We are still in Red Bay while they paint the coach.
ReplyDeleteWe will, too bad that it is taking so long with you coach.
Deleteohhh like the moon shot .. how pretty. sure is a very clean, large laundry place…. and the pizza and salad! what fun …. I'm seeing different parts of Q than I have in the past. not all deserty and dirty …
ReplyDeleteQuartzsite is a very interesting place, the desert is just a place to park. The explore so many fun things to do here, could actually spend a few months here and really enjoy it, thats if we could stay in one place long enoiugh,
