Tues. Jan. 17. A few Vendors at Quartzsite

Thanks for joining us in our journey of North America 

in our Holiday Rambler,  since August 2006

 Where are we Today ?

Quartzsite AZ

        A cool night last night (as usual) good for sleeping.  Morning coffees and computing, fiddle with our internet , its pretty slow with so many people accessing the one tower here. Just love the beautiful Arizona sunrises over the mountains to the east of us.

        I took a short drive around Kuehn St. to check out the morning sights and spotted a couple of real cool rides.

        You see a lot of interesting vehicles here every shape and size.

        After a bite to eat we took a walk past the Big Tent, not open yet, Saturday will be the first day of the show.

         Across the road is Tyson Wells with quite a few vendors set up so we wandered  the rows and tenets checking out some of their wares, nice when its not too crowded yet.

lotsa stuff

         We picked up a few must have items cheap, including a few books to read and after about three hours made our way back to home dirt.

         We past by Beer Belly's patio and beer tent with live music and people dancing, just enjoying the wonderful atmosphere and sunshine of the outdoor markets.

         Oh, and I bought myself an nice new crushable hat, lightweight with a wide brim for more sun protection.

         We relaxed in the sun for a bit with our books and then were joined by Jay and Joanne for Happy hour to catch up a bit on what we have been doing for the last 5 years.

neighbors dog came to visit

          Joanne's son is also here with their pet lizards, cat and dog to keep everybody company.

Lizards are George and Georgina, that's me on the left! Good resemblance eh?

         Now with our first day here winding down a nice sunset to the behind "Q" mountain I fired up our Weber grill for the great tasty fresh smoked pork chops I picked up at the Quartzsite Market. They have an in house butcher there with great deals on fresh cut meat.

another tasty meal

        Now to finish up our day with some planing, reading, our books and a bit of tv was just wonderful.
