We left Lake Morena RV Park on schedule this morning at 10 am. We got waved through the border without any big problem. The Brits had to turn in their visas at the Amercan Immigration Office which was a quick stop for the most part but since we had already gone through with our rig, we really had no where to park so we just stopped in the center lane since it was not at all busy. Dave followed us in his rig while Isobel was taking care of their visa business. Within minutes, here comes the police with the lights on. I was certain this would be our first ticket! He was very nice and we explained the situation and that we would be leaving momentarily to get on the highway for Ensenada. He said ... read more

We are leaving here tomorrow morning with the destination of El Centro in California where we will spend the night and then head on to Portrero just a bit north of the Mexican border near Tecate. We plan to cross in Tecate but will get our papers and insurance in order in Tecate before heading south. Our plan is to be in Ensenada on Monday afternoon. Today Mike and Art went golfing again today in Parker at the Emerald Canyon. Mike took the camera last time, but the memory stick was not in it!! So he made sure that he had it today. It was quite cool this morning for golf but it warmed up later on. Today it was about 68 degrees but the morning and evenings are cool. We are really looking forward to ... read more

Another day in Quartzite. Lots of RVers have left but more will be coming in for the next show which is the Craft Show that is starting on Tuesday. We started the day by visiting the Traveling Memorial Wall here in the little city park here in Quartzite. It was quite moving. Mike located a high school friend's name who served and died in the Viet Nam War. The Wall will be here for a few more days. We learned that the wall will be visiting Traverse City in July. I have some pictures posted here. Mike and Art are golfing back at The Emerald Canyon on Monday. I will be alone here w/o any power! Well, maybe Mike is going to show me how to get the generaors started so I can watch my shows! ... read more

EDITORIAL NOTE: I received a scathing email from the new owners at Sandbar resort asking me take back my negative comments. We found the campground to be adequate and did mention in an earlier post that the place WAS being renovated and was under new management. I apologize for using the word the "pits" in referring to the campground. Yet another beautifully sunny day here in Parker, Az on the Colorado River. No breeze today. We got up and waited for the sun to warm up the area a bit and headed out for our walk. We discovered that this campground is next to a place called Fox's which boasts that it has the oldest drinking establishment on the river!! Yes, of course, we checked it out later tonight and had a brew. Before that we ... read more

Another beautiful day here although it was a bit windy. I went for my 3 mile walk and it was a little tough with all the hills! After lunch we decided to go down to the Lake Havasu Landing and take the boat over to California to the casino and to just tour around the area. It was sooooo cool and windy down at the Ferry landing. When we went to purchase our tickets, the ticket guy told us that they may not sail b/c of the wind, that the ferry was on the way back and the captain would decide when he returned. So we went to the little shops down there (more crap!!) and then learned that they would not be sailing b/c of the weather. We figured the captain just wanted the afternoon ... read more
