Towneplace Stes Marriott 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 ...

... cheeseburger. As evidenced by the photos here, a Lutes’ Special is everything it’s advertised to be, a hot dog grilled and split open to lay flat atop a cheeseburger. Stephanie opted for the chili topped with cheese. Photos of the interior would have been inadequate to explain the décor. Likewise, none of our words will be able to paint much more than an ephemeral impression. Eclectic seems simple-minded; slightly pornographic is apt, if ...

Today's desert run was more like what you would expect from a Jeep Commercial. While most of the trip was smooth sailing, albeit dusty ...

Spent most of the day downloading pictures from camera to computer to back up hard drive . . . so only had a very short time to get out and shoot a few . . .but the pictures I did get are worth sharing . . Jackie

... adequate food and water. I really think this looked like a skull laying on top of the mountain. But then I could be seeing things! One of the more interesting things we stopped and looked at . . .a yellow and black Gila Monster. Hope everyone enjoyed my day at the desert .. . Jackie Whedbee

... glasses, have you teeth fixed, get your RV repainted all for considerably less money. It was most interesting and Pat and I took advantage of the drug bargains and also had a very enjoyable late breakfast in an open air plaza in town. After we had made our purchases we proceeded back across the border picked up our car from the paved parking lot (run by the local first nations band) and proceeded home with a stop at the casino before getting back onto the ...

... Piquette were already here so we met at their place for a lengthy visit and supper. The next day, we all went to Algadones, Mexico for a look-see, a couple drinks, some trinkets and cheap booze. Walking back across the border is a test of endurance taking 2 hours to advance 200 ft. We met up with Guy & Janice Charbonneau, and Steve & Marilyn Loza at Marcel & Diane Caouette's RV resort to catch up on some Bonnyville gossip over a few sarsaparillas. After a golf ...

... some coffee yesterday. He started asking about my bike and our travels. Once he found out we were going through Baja he suggested that we find a different route or be especially careful between TJ and Ensenada because of all the highway robberies. I checked out some reports online and it was true that it has been getting worse ever ...

... by the person over the phone certainly hadn't helped. We did find it after having some faith and search in Mandy and we drove into the park. Lunch and then set out to go have a look at Yuma and the historic prison. We only unhooked and drove 2 metres and a wind and sand storm hit. We decided to pull up were we are parked up waiting for the sand and wind to stop. While I am writing this the wind kept up and a squall of rain came through. We are still ...

... shared a date shake and a prickly pear shake. They were good, don't drive 3000 miles in darkness for one, take our word on it. Anyway after the milkshake Jenn started to call the hotels in the book. All Naomi heard was, "Do you have any rooms, no, ok thanks". The first time this sentence was said it sounded weird, by about the eigth time it sounded like a cruel joke. We drove past exit 12 which had a sign for one hotel but we knew that exit 2 ...
