More friends drop by and a warm productive day.

Where are we today ?
        Much milder last night windows open and had a great nights sleep. Up early as usual and after coffees and computing a cruise around town before the traffic starts. Picked up a few nice sunrise shots that really makes my day.
by Tyson Wells, the Glove balloon.
amazing with the morning clouds.
         Then at 8:15 am took out Roadmaster Sterling Tow bar to the Roadmaster  service bay, to have it checked out. A free service that they do at all these shows. So why not take advantage of it. Tow bar cleaned and checked and back in the trunk of our car, then back to home dirt before 9 am. Love the service that Roadmaster has. Our tow bar is still like new since we purchased it in 2006.

first thing in the morning the parking lots are
 watered down to stop some of the dust.
         Walking through the wash to the tent, a dry river bed that are all over the southwest.
         Friends of ours from Ontario (fullrime rver's) stopped by for a visit and we walked over to the tent and Tyson Wells to pick up a few items they were looking for. They bought their Magne Shade for the coach and a few other bargoons.

     Then wandering about for a bit back to our home dirt. Chatted for a while then they headed on out to explore a bit more. I think they did Silly Als' for lunch and maybe the Oasis bookstore too. Then back to Ehrenberg about 20 minutes away. Was so nice to see them again, last March in Ontario was the last time.
      Asked them how they like Arizona and not for them. Too dry, cold at night and too dusty. Bit as we have said before either you love Arizona our you hate it. Think you know we love it!

          After they took off I reinstalled our tow bar , as good as new again.
hey Rob caught me "working"
I even had to smile too
he caught Suzie doing what she loves too
      I got that all done and had time for a bicycle ride around our area. To the edge of the wash near Q mountain. Riding a few trails and checking out a lot of the remote sites not far from us .

actually ATV's everywhere
        Back to home dirt, had my shower and Happy hour with our friends for a bit. Sunset is happening as I fired up our Weber Q, to grill some taters, broccoli and celery in foil and a couple very tasty smoked pork chops.

Then we have a very tasty supper
         Again another fun day, more friends drop by, enjoy the awesome sunny weather, sunrises and sunsets. Sure do love the South Western states.
         Glad you could stop by for a visit and if you in the area, come on down!

  3. The desert isn't for everyone but aren't we glad that's true? If it were, there might not be room for us!

    1. But we use our tow bar 12 months of the year and move every week or two big difference,
      You should be fine, but nice to get it checked for free when you can.

  9. We are using a Verizon MIFI and are very happy with it, Bought it last year, no contract. and prepay every month in advance. Buy a top up card at Dollar General and have had no issues with it at all. We use 10 gb a month for $90.00 and no problems at all. Can get 3 GB for $60.00 but with two computers this wrks great for us.
