Sunrise in Arizona, Sunset in California and Bill helped with a small water leak.

Where are we today ?

Pilot Knob Resort California

clic a pic to enlarge it.

       Another cool over night but no wind and no dampness we toasty warm. 36 F (2c) at 5:30 am but as the sun rose so did the temperature. And as the sun was rising I got a nice 1 mile walkabout done and home before 8 am. Enjoyed another nice Arizona sunrise. Soon in shorts again.

Our last Arizona sunrise for a few weeks

         Then we can putter around secure our coach and head on down the road about 9:15 only 39 miles to go but need to stop for Gas and propane at the Flying J in Yuma. Suzie drove the car behind just so she could enjoy driving HER car once in a while, lol, a rare treat for her.

Heading north to I-8 westbound

from the Foothills to Yuma

love this overpass

lots of crops growing and harvesting going on here

        Moving right along almost there we know the road well. But as we crossed into California construction and I missed the sign for our turnoff. OOPPS. Construction signs are confusing sometimes. No problem go to the next exit, hmm that one is close as well. So 10 miles down the road at the Imperial sand dunes we can take that exit and head on back Only 20 miles out of our way, Oh well was a nice scenic drive and we in no hurry.

turn around here at the dunes
at least we got to see them again
earlier than planned

       We did arrive at Pilot Knob resort by 11 am (Arizona time) anyway, Checked in and picked a nice sunny end site near the back of the pack, We prefer it back here no hiway noise and much larger sites. Much more expensive now but still not too bad $14.00 a night with full hookups. We will hang out here until the New year then??? Wander about the desert.

here we are

     We got set up and discovered I had a water leak from our water filter to the inlet connection. I fiddled with it a bit . But could not undo the connection, Hmm try as a might  no luck. It has been hooked up like this since 2006. I puttered around a bit more we had lunch then our good friends and bloggers Bill and Patsy pulled in. Nice to see them again first time since last summer at their Ridge in Durham Ontario.

      Bill came over and with his muscle we removed to connection , I cleaned it up and back together , no more water leak!  Yahoo, thanks Bill.

here we are all set up on a wonderful sunny site

        We were all set up by 3 pm just in time for Happy hour, with friends for a nice change, wonderful. We flapped our gums, got caught up a bit then as it cooled down home to whip up supper.

first of all Suzie got her Doggie fix with Clemson

Patsy and Bill

And Patsy had brought us 2 Date nut loafs from the China Date Ranch
near Death Valley California

Thanks bundles guys!

       For supper tonight grilled a couple of Chicken Cordon Blue sausage we picked up in New York.

these are so tasty

cooked up on our Weber Q

with our salad for a another wonderful supper

then to end a great day, Our first California Sunset this winter

39 miles today, plus a 20 mile detour

     We settled in for 2 weeks so we not traveling during the holidays and can enjoy a nice Christmas Dinner here with friends and as well as this area, and of course a trip or 2 to Mexico goes without saying.
