We left Tucson on Saturday morning, after Marc and Laila joined us for breakfast in the motor home. The drive to Quartzsite was mostly freeway, and just before sunset, we parked in the desert, about a mile east of town. We're a little bit ahead of the huge wave of RV'ers that will be arriving in the next 2-3 weeks. There's lots of activity at the various vendor areas, as many were in the process of setting up their booths, and displaying their stuff. Yesterday, we spent several hours at two of the larger swap meet locations, and of course, we found a few things we just could not live without. The weather was almost perfect, in the high 60's, and not a cloud in the sky. I picked up a Sunday paper, and when we returned to the motor home, it was mostly an afternoon of reading and relaxing. After all, that's what we do best, and it looks like Gracie is fitting right into the family. For dinner, I BBQ'd a couple of New York steaks on the brand new Weber that I purchased before we left for Tucson. I've been using what I call the "throwaway" gas grills for years, and decided it was time for a nice motor home BBQ. It worked so well, I almost overcooked the steaks. Today, we'll check out a few more swap meet locations, then head for home tomorrow.
