Tyson Wash campsite

Yesterday Nancy and I moved AGAIN.  Can't seem to get settled this year, but we are here in Tyson Wash on the west side for the duration - which is only a few days.  We have nice views all around. 

Great mountains right out my front windshield,

and nice large bushes out the kitchen windows.  From time to time I hear birds rustling around in the bushes, but haven't gotten a good look at them yet.

I was awake early yesterday morning and took this shot right before sunrise:

Then the clouds seemed to float in and we had cloud cover all day.  I never did see the sun.  Lots of wind during the night last night that was hard enough to wake me up a few times.   Rocking and rolling The Palms.  Today dawned clear and sunny, but still with some cold winds. 

Here's our new campsite:

There's no one nearby, but there is one camper down the road a bit and some others up the road toward the trash dumpsters.  Yesterday Katie and I walked with Nancy and her dog, Dolly a couple of times.  Katie seems to be walking better lately; I'm going to try to keep her moving more, which is supposed to be good for arthritis, right?

I went up on the roof this morning to check things out - and boy were my solar panels dirty!  I don't know how much difference that makes, but they are clean and shiny now.  :) 

I've gotten my plan together for Los Algodones on Thursday.  I'll leave Quartzsite Tuesday morning and stop in Yuma to fill the fridge and cupboards.  I'm out of EVERYTHING - milk, butter, bread, eggs, the list is endless! - and I'd rather hit the Walmart in Yuma than spend more $$$ in the Quartzsite stores since I'm heading south anyway in a few days.  Then I'll head over to the Quechan ("Q") Casino 🎰 to relax and spend Tuesday and Wednesday night, then head to the border Thursday morning.  My son asked me to call him to let him know when I'm going across, and then again when I return so he'll know I've made it safely.  I think I'll do that for my own peace of mind, too, but I'm sure I'll be fine.

After that, I'm not sure.  The colder weather in Quartzsite makes me think about staying in the Yuma area for a while, until more friends arrive in Q for the big tent.  We'll see...  

From me and Katie, have a great Sunday, everyone! 😏
