Time to Start the Journey Back HOME

Well we have been in Quartzsite for 2 ½ months enjoying the sun and it is finally time to start our 3,000 mile journey back home to our summer camp http://www.brushwood.com/ in Sherman, NY. It has been strange during this time to call home and hear about the snow we missed when we have only had sun and a few rain showers. We look forward to returning next winter, for we found 2 thrift stores that had great deals for 50 cents and one dollar.
We left around 11am on Tuesday after Airaday finished her last day of work at Sweet Darlene’s. Darla’s last day was a few days before that on Friday. We then headed about 40 miles down the road to Parker, AZ to do some Wal-mart shopping and cash in our casino points at the Blue Water Resort & Casino. We both earned $10.oo and used that money to go and see the movie “Training Your Dragon” at the casino theatre.
On Wednesday we went 50 miles down the road to Needles, CA to the Rainbo Beach Resort. This park is right on the Colorado River and has a pool and hot tub as well as a beach and boat dock. From what we are told they are quite the happening place in a few weeks and they claim to have a very nice $6.oo Prime Rib dinner on the weekends. We found this place because a good friend from our RVW camping group is just next door in another park. Today she came and got us and took us down the road about 20 miles to Avi Casino for they have a ½ roasted chicken dinner with beans, corn, soup or salad and pie for only $5.95…Yummy
On Thursday April 1st we head for the Hoover Dam and Las Vegas, NV.
The winds are picking up and a storm is brewing, so wish us luck going over the mountains.

It has been awhile, but we are still alive

It has been awhile since we last updated our blog, but we are still alive. We have just been very busy with work and our time in Quartzsite. On March 12 th we went to a hot springs to celebrate Darla's birthday. We have both been working at Sweet Darlene's restaurant. It has been very interesting to say the least. There is a great bakery here in Quartzsite, it is the Quartzsite Bakery, they have the best doughnuts, pastries and coconut macaroons. In two weeks we will be on the move again. We are going to Aspen and Denver Colorado then to South Dakota. After that we will be headed back home to Sherman NY and our camp family. We miss all of them, we are here in 80 degree weather and when we call home they always seem to be in a middle of snow. I guess all their snow is starting to melt though. We hope it is all gone by the time we get there in mid April, or at least by the time we have to drive over the mountains.
