Desert Vistas from Brown to Green

We finally decided on a loose itinerary for where we’re going for the next few months, so we left Cocopah Casino’s parking lot “B” yesterday and headed back the way we last came to Yuma, via Hwy 95 along the Colorado River that serves as the East and West boundaries between California and Arizona, respectively. […]

Parker, AZ on Lake Havasu

Where are we now? We’re currently in Parker, AZ on Lake Havasu. The lake and rocky hills with their rich black and red rock covered with patches of bright green plants are a nice change from Yuma’s flat, brown, and sand terrain. We have plans for 3 days, maybe more.

Where are we… going?

We are currently residing at the Cocopah Casino parking lot for the next three days while we figure out where we’re headed next. As we’ve mentioned before, Cocopah Casino is a great place to stop overnight, or for several days. They charge $5 for each 3 day period, and you can stay pretty much indefinitely […]

Cheryl’s Rant of the Day to Dog Owners

Obviously, we’re dog owners, so why would I rant about dog owners, you might ask? Here’s why: This morning when I took our Shadow out for a walk, what did I find at the base of her ramp (Shadow has a ramp to help her get up into our rig. It’s a big jump for a […]

Coffee, Donuts, & Seminars!

Today was the first full day of the Western Gypsy Gathering Rally we’re attending in Yuma. It began at 7:30 am with Coffee & Donuts provided by one of the vendors. Behind-the-scenes, it really began at 6:15 am for Miss Terry, who got up early to start the coffee pots perking and get things organized. […]

Yuma, AZ – Part Deux

Once again we are back in Yuma, Arizona. Why? Well, the first reason is that it’s about the warmest place in the USA right now (an obvious reason why Yuma is a prime destination for RVers and Snowbirds this time of year) and it’s also where the Fourth Annual Western Gypsy Gathering Rally is being held this […]

Be careful where you park your RV

If you’re like us and are always snapping pictures to chronicle your travels, this is a must see video:

Happy Birthday, Chuck!

Today is Chuck’s birthday and I made him a cake. It was just a regular ol’ birthday cake, however – nothing as grand as these camping / RV themed ones I found on the ‘net: Hope you enjoyed the cake anyway, Chuck! Your second birthday as a Full-timer – RV having fun yet?

Happy New Year

What an appropriate video to watch for the beginning of the New Year:

Earthquake at the Center of the World

Today we decided to visit “The Official Center of the World” located in Felicty, CA which is just about an hour’s drive from El Centro, where we’re currently camped. As you drive along I-8 East towards Yuma, AZ, it is just off the highway very near the border. I wasn’t particularly impressed with the place […]
