We’re back in Las Vegas, NV today, once again staying at the Desert Eagle RV Park run by Nellis AFB. Our plans are to stay here for at least a week to get some things done; like the yearly taxes :-|, a grooming appointment for Shadow, and perhaps check out some sites we missed the […]

Desert Vistas from Brown to Green
March 19th, 2010 
Cheryl 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. […]

Comments OffParker, AZ on Lake Havasu
March 18th, 2010 Cheryl 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?
March 13th, 2010 Cheryl 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 […]
Coffee, Donuts, & Seminars!
March 9th, 2010 Cheryl 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. […]

March 8th, 2010 Cheryl 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 […]

March 7th, 2010 Chuck We stopped by the London Bridge in Lake Havasu, on the way from Pahrump to Yuma. It was rainy and cool, but a nice pause in our trip south. The weather experience made it really feel like we were in England. We thought of our friends Colin and Evelyn, back in Inverness, FL, who are […]
Bath and a Haircut – Again!?
February 10th, 2010 Shadow Hi, Shadow here again to talk about another day as a RVing Pup. And today, once again, I was woken up early in the morning to take another drive. Once again, I was fooled into thinking we were going on another adventure, only to be dropped off at the local groomer for another bath and […]

February 10th, 2010 Chuck We are presently camped at Seabreeze RV Resort at the Navy Base in Seal Beach, CA. We use the term ‘Resort’ loosely. It’s a nice campground, to be sure, but we think too many campgrounds try to make them sound better by using the word Resort in the name. To us, it’s not a resort unless there […]
Earthquake at the Center of the World
December 30th, 2009 Cheryl 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 […]
