Yuma AZ

Last week Fran and Ian flew back to Canada and we got on the road again heading south. Thought we may stop in Quartzsite for a couple of months but, as we drove in and saw how baren it was, we decided to continue on to the foothills in Yuma. We had been to this area last year for a month and really enjoyed our stay. So we drove in, found a 'for rent' sign on a lot we liked and moved in. It's gated, inexpensive, clean and the neighbours are really friendly. The view of the mountains from our window is picture perfect. Hooked up with friends Bill and Doris (full timers) and Steve and Rene (Idaho) who come here every winter. Nice to see them again. We'll drive the car up to Quartzsite for the swapmeet in January. Have had a few rainy days so have had time to spring clean some cupboards. Met up with Tiffinrvnetwork friends, John and Bev from Ottawa, while shopping at Walmart the other day. They are on their way to the Baja. Will be interested to see how that goes for them as we have that adventure on our 'bucket list'.
