Sundance Resort Yuma.

       Our last morning here at Emerald Lake resort and not a bad morning at all, We will miss the river, the facilities  and the burros, and great weather but we do like to keep moving on down the road. After a nice sunrise and a few walkabouts we secured our coach and headed on down the road only 118 miles so not in a  big hurry.

gonna miss this but we will be back

       Coach all secured and car hooked up (first time in a month!) and outta  here by 9 am. heading south on 95 to Yuma, a very familiar road we have travelled many times over the years.

into Quartzsite nice and quiet now

corner of Keuhn and 95 no traffic, nice.

      Making our way south past the Yuma proving grounds and the military guns I have so many pictures of. Always love this road we heading south.

Yuma proving grounds

      Then a bit later past the orchards and green fields here in the agricultural belt, always nice to see.

         We made your  way to the Foothills and stopped at the FlyingJ to top up our fuel then east on frontage road. Opps, a detour and a scenic one right through a beautiful subdivision  with some amazing homes.

following the signs

        Gawking around I missed the tiny sign on a small side street to turn and ended up on a dead end street. No problem we had a nice tour but had to disconnect our car to make a 5 point U turn and get back on track, Not the first time we have done this and I am sure will not be the last time. No problem though we are not far from our destination so Suzie just drove right along behind me in  the car.
       Destination today is Sundance Resort for 3  nights FREE camping with full hookups. We got  a coupon at the Rv show tent in Quartzsite and will take advantage of it. Why not? free is free and we back in the Yuma area for 3 nights with full hookups.

this be this place

        Not a bad campground at all, smaller sites and a smaller campground, more our style for a campground, We like it much more that the Fortuna D'oro next store that we stayed at last year.

a nice site with our very own Palm tree

     All set up by noon and enjoyed a nice light tasty lunch. As soon as we plugged in I turned our Antique slow cooker on High and set in the rump roast I picked up yesterday on sale for 6 bucks with some spices etc.
     Then I whipped around the corner to Fry's for a few supplies and fuel the car. Home shortly and relaxed outside in the shade enjoying the rest of the day. Only problem with this particular site is close to the interstate with some road noise outside. but we cannot hear it inside.
       I did some walkabouts here for a bit and check a few things out. They have a huge Ballroom here and actually a concert tonight that is sold out 400 seats. Would have been a nice show but not for $18,00 a person , not in our budget right now.

all set up for the show,
we may hear it from here

 very nice facilities here

     I found out they have Happy Hour every day this week by the pool with entertainment from 3 till 5 , so I just wandered on down to check it out.

nice large pool

the band is on break

lots of people here hanging out,
maybe another day

nice we can get water right here  $1.00 for 5 gallons 

     Back home  enjoying our e-readers outside was soon time for me to whip up the rest of our dinner to go with our Roast beef in the slow cooker, Really smelling awesome inside.  With a roast beef we need to have Yorkshire Pudding and I still have a package here to make a 1/2 dozen more for tonight.

this mix is so easy and quick

my crock pot, the plastic lid is cracked so I put foil over it
still working after 25 years,
10 years in my restaurant every day!

Yorkshire pudding done

gravy ready

       Even some fresh asparagus I picked today only $1.77 a lb

that was a great roast beef dinner and of course lots of left overs.
we can always use leftovers 

our trip today only 118 miles 

       That was our fun short travel day, always like to explore new campgrounds , especially when they are free , plus we have a few things we want to do while but here in Yuma.

        Wanna thank y'all for dropping on by and hope your day was as wonderful as ours.
