Comfort Inn Yuma

It was a rather tricky drive getting outside of Prescott, Az. That's a road we'll never take again in our motorhome. The road isn't something I'd recommend even if driving a car. Craig earned his stripes that day. Drove thru Quartzite; it looks the same as usual, although ...

Whatever else might be said about the décor, it certainly entertains the waiting patrons.<br><br>Sunday 21 June 2009<br><br>Our intention was to spend the day driving across Southern CA on I-8 West from Yuma to San Diego and then down to Baja California to find a place to stay until Friday morning.

Here is what we see out our back window. A true Arizona sunset. Sunday was a low key day. I stayed in and knitted and read a book, took in some football. Dale fixed Annie's perch. It broke last month and she ...

... the Golden Gate Bridge and the Yuma Proving Grounds. Thank goodness we remembered how to get to the SKP park. We pulled in late to the park and had to stay in the boondocking area.
