TRAVELIN TO TUCSON

Our path from Lake Havasu City to Tucson is one that we have traveled on many occasions, and yesterday's journey wasn't much different. We pulled away from the house at about 10am, and made the trip in about 6 hours, arriving at the Pima County Fairgrounds a little after 4pm. Instead of taking the shorter route on Hwy 72 through Bouse, we detoured through Quartzsite in order to stop at the Root Farms Tent, and pick up a supply of raw almonds. Although the activity in Quartzsite was pretty quiet, many of the street side vendors are set up and open for business. Next month, the same scene will look like a beehive, with people substituted for insects.

While I was getting the motor home parked at the Fairgrounds, Marc stopped by on his way home from work, and we were surprised that he had Laila with him. Chandra was braving the shopping crowds for most of the day, so Laila went to work with Dad. We kept Laila for an hour or so, then took her home, where Chandra had prepared a delicious pot roast for dinner. We called it an early evening, as Patty needed to get some rest, not having slept very well the night after having cataract surgery on her right eye for the second time. Today is Christmas Eve, and we'll be spending most of the afternoon at Marc, Chandra, & Laila's, with several activities being planned.
