Where are we today ?
If you are in the area near Quartzite Arizona and want to have a fun couple of hours meeting some fellow Rv'er's and Bloggers this would be the place to go. Only 2 hours out of your day and guaranteed you will meet a lot of fun people. Just check out the information below, Jeri has pulled this together so beautifully. We were looking forward to this first time event but life kinda took us away at the last minute. Would be so nice to meet fellow rv'ers and bloggers that we have followed for many years and a lot we have never met in person. Hopefully next year, Quartzsite will always be there.I took the directions right form Jeri's posting on the Just Wanderin' Blog and copied them below.

GPS Coordinates: 33.76770 -114.17039
Now for my day nothing really exciting, but I am the designated Go-fer. Ya know go for this go this go for for that. I just do what needs to be done. Pack a few boxes here, wash some knick knacks, a couple trips to Stratford, pick up empty boxes, few things at the store, make lunches and whip up supper. House Husband, me thinks, but does keep me busy and my mind off of the warm southern climates.
Directions: North on Hwy 95 from center of Quartzsite to Plomosa Rd. (about 5 1/2 miles) Right on Plomosa Road. Travel about 2.9 miles east on Plomosa Road to yellow balloons and to orange SKYTRAK on left side of road.
Make left turn at SKYTRAK and follow dirt road immediately to the right.
Look for yellow balloons.
Don’t forget to bring utensils --- paper plate, fork, spoon, etc.

Yes much better weather there, we were hoping to meeting you guys as well, its been a long time for this longe distance relationship. Some day for sure.
DeleteThanks for the kudos, George! Hopefully, this can be the start of an annual Blogger-Fest. We'll plan on seeing you next year.
ReplyDeleteYou welcome Jeri, I know you will have a great turnout and perfect weather.
DeleteWe plan to be there for sure as long as the plans don't get erased again.
Thanks, George. I think the message will get out for sure. We should have a big group. Will miss you!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time there, we will catchup with you somewhere along the way.
DeleteWell, I have my chair, my glass of wine, a handful of "business" cards... but... darned! we're outside of Ft Worth, Texas..... guess we just won't get the chance to meet fellow bloggers this time 'round.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you would enjoy it if you were there, we will give it a shot again.
DeleteThe problem is the skytrack fork lift must have been picked up sometime yesterday afternoon and is gone from this corner now..... But our corner is the last place where you can turn into the BLM campground... After us there is no more camping on this road, that I know of... There are smaller signs advertising SKP chapters 6 and 21 which are next door to us so that is the right place to turn in.....
ReplyDeleteThats the probl;em with being out there in the desert those darn vehicles keep moving. I am sure people will find the place.
DeleteYup, Punky Doodles Corner sure brings back memories for me. Used to be around that big curve twice a day on a school bus when attending Waterloo-Oxford high school back in the early 60's. Rolled a rent-a-car over on that curve one Saturday afternoon in the early 70's. I think the car had too much to drink.............
ReplyDeleteHa ha....A lot on cars have rolled on that curve especially back in the 70's when those big cars had a drinking problem.
DeleteEvery time I see your pictures I have to remind myself to stop complaining about how cold it's been here this year !! LOL
ReplyDeleteLol, yeah it can always be worse, we would trade places with you any day right now.
DeleteI'm sad like you are that we all can't be there. But at least you had one great meal to cheer you up! ;c)
ReplyDeleteYep too bad that we can't make it but your guys had cruise to enjoy too, sometimes things do have a priority. And conflicting dates. But life does carry on....
DeleteYou sure at getting good at being the gofer guy, not to mention all that packing up.
ReplyDeleteWe do what we can, and it will all work out.
