          What more can we ask for here? Wonderful sunrises, warm sunny days, and hanging out with friends.
this mornings sunrise
            After coffees and computing my first desert walkabout shortly after 7am  right after the sunrise was wonderful just over  a mile.
           Then  about town for a while checking out motels for a friend that is coming to visit tomorrow.  Season over now and rates are about half from a week ago.              
            Back by the BIG TENT noticed it was gone, next year another zoo here.
The big tent was here just 4 days ago
now gone
         With amazing weather we take advantage of every day. You know it's great when Suzie in the shade with shorts on !
        Drivng around saw this rig with a neat towed. Trike n the back.
is that a machine gun on the trike?
      What great sunny hot day. A quick happy hour here then 5 of us off to Silly Al's for an early supper. Love their Pizza.  Our expenses way down this month even with the exchange rate for the Canadian dollar guess we can do it.

 
       So of course we there for Happy hour 3:30 pitcher only 7 US dollars. Garlic cheese bread to start. so much for healthy eating today ! And another one of the best Pizzas we have ever had. Considering I owned a pizza place for 10 years. Service and food wonderful.
garlic cheese bread was excellent
          We ordered a medium South of the border pizza, very tasty, and reasonable too.
always excellent pizza here
       Now we met some blog followers here from San Francisco ( Sandy and Randy) that wanted to connect with us. And we enjoyed some excellent food and great conversation with them. They looking to buy an RV and wanting some tips. So we told them what we  know and then they can take that info and decide.
at Silly Al's, lr  John, Barb, Randy, Sandy,
 me, Suzie and Clancy,
           After here we all returned to "home dirt" and continued flapping our gums until it got too cool and they needed to head on out to Congress AZ. And thanl you Randy and Sandy for these very tasty marinated olives from Trader Joe's.
     So wonderful to meet some new blog followers and get together at Silly Al's for an excellent Pizza here in the Q.
      Thanks for joining us today and just know y'all had a great one too.

  5. Are those tortilla chips on that pizza? I looked up your recipe for cauliflower crust pizza.. a friend is having a pizza party here soon and I know several folks are vegetarians (and gluten free)... I think I'll give that recipe a try. Thanks!

    1. The pizza is topped with lettuce, tomato and corn chips after baking. Very different and tasty.
      We really enjoy the Cauliflower pizza crust when we can find a reasonably priced cailiflower

  10. I would be interested to learn just how much commerce took place and how many dollars changed hands during the Big Tent Quartzsite sale. I bet it is nice to have less people around the Q now.

  11. Mmmmm, that pizza looks so good! I can sure tell you where NOT to go for pizza in Yuma!!! Did you get rid of all the lemons? I hope so; I felt a little guilty leaving you to deal with them. You know what they say though; when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! Have some lemonade on me.
