We're here at La Posa South! A special visitor stops by!

Set the alarm yesterday morning (Monday) so we would get up and going (0500).  Did our usual coffee and visiting with blogging friends.  Ken took a shower and got ready then he headed to Walmart in Parker to pick up a few things we needed.  That Walmart is always packed so figured get a jump on early in the am.  

While he was gone I took my shower etc and then got ready and cleaned up the trailer.  He got gas and headed back home.  Breakfast was made and then we hooked up, dumped and left.  1100 we were on the road. Yep, takes us that long to get done. Good thing we only had 40+ miles to go.  

Beautiful drive and then as expected the closer you get to Quartzsite the more traffic.  So, you just get your mind right, and watch the traffic and people and enjoy.  We headed for La Posa South and here we are.  We were actually able to get the same site we had last year.  We're on the main road, across from a Monaco convention.  So many RV's and so little noise..amazing. 
Some Quartzsite traffic...

After we got here and got set up we headed down the road to check out the dumpsters and dump station.  All cleaned up  and people were dumping.  The sign at the entrance said all services were cancelled due to the government shutdown but that wasn't the case (later we heard the government came up with a 3 week budget)..Then we headed further down the road looking for the camp we know 3 of our blogging friends are at together.  We found it!  The Stinger B jumped right out at us!  We could see most of the vehicles were gone except for Tom and Deb's and it was a little early for happy hour, so we figured they were out somewhere.  
Near the big tent..


We came back to camp and the sun was shining nice and bright, I put on some shorts, grabbed my easy chair and my kindle.  I'm set.  A little while later Ken was in the trailer and he said "I think that's Black Beauty going home"..I got up and I'm certain it was.. 
Amazing and so quiet..

Our home away from home...

Before dark Ken started a fire in the fire pit he made (Kept him busy for a few minutes)..had a lovely fire and a beautiful sunset. 






Our oldest son, Bryan called last night so we talked awhile. Then he sent me pictures of his lovely dinner..He is a good bar b quer! 


Ribs! YUM!



Dinner was simple hot dogs and a cheeseburger for him.  I made some oven fries and then we called it a night about 2200.  

Slept in after a night of dreaming until 0630..and we are greeted by a beautiful morning!  Here I sit at 0830 typing away..Life is great gotta say! Made some breakfast scrambled eggs with mushroom and cheese for Ken and cereal for me. 

After my shower I was cleaning up the kitchen and saw a shadow come across the trailer...saw it was Patsy!  coming to say hello!  We were happy to meet her in person and like she said we feel like we already know each other from the blogs.  We visited a bit and then said we'd be over there for happy hour later today.  She is just as cute as you could imagine, just like her blog! Chillin' with Patsy. Thanks for stopping in!! 

We took about a 1 mile walk to the dumpsters and back and now I wanted to get this done and get on with the day at noon!!  

Have a great day!
