Join us as we travel North America in our Holiday Rambler Vacationer, 

 since August 2006

      Now as we are waiting for the sun to rise with hot coffee and composing the blog today I noticed a few RV's around us are on the move. A couple of them stopped to say goodbye, now we have a bit more open space. Then a morning walkabout and bike ride was nice chatting with a few other neighbours as they kind of gather here and there.
       A noise overhead reveals another Ultra Light, cruise just above us in the cloudless blue sky, it must be an amazing sight to see this desert covered with nothing but thousands of rv's.

      Then after our showers I went to get some water (12 gallons) to replenish a bit of our fresh water holding tank. Now today at 10:30am there was 33 rv's in line for the dump station, about a 3 hour wait. We may have to go there before next week so I am checking. At 4:00 pm there was only 12 in line.

Suzie's Necklace

      Yesterday we went looking for Gems and Stuff. We found what Suzie wanted a green gem stone called Aventurine and the supplies to make a necklace, so with her design and my help we had fun creating her masterpiece.

      A walkabout over to the big tent, I picked up some water filters for our coach and checked out some of the less crowded vendors, it's still busy but not shoulder to shoulder crowded. Then  back to relax in the shade with a book, and enjoy the scenery and nice weather.

      Now as the sun gets lower in the sky it's time to fire up the barbie for another yummy supper. Steak, mushrooms, onions, baked potato and cauliflower with cheese. Another great desert day!
