Things are starting to quiet down in Quartzsite as the RV show is over so many, many people are moving on to new adventures. We opted to stay a few extra days to enjoy a slower pace and fewer people. We rode our bikes into town on Sunday with a short cruise north of town on their nice bike trail. It took us past their park that is made for fun. There are tennis courts, sand volleyball, R/C airstrip and race course for R/C cars and of course the playground. We also found this desert garden where folks have planted trees or bushes in memory or in honor of their loved ones. The Historical Society created a miniature city with homes, businesses, barns, people and privies.
We went wild on Monday and rented a side-by-side Polaris ATV and we went crazy driving down gravel washes and climbing hills to explore the mountains just west of the town. It was so much fun that it now has John thinking about getting one along with a pickup truck to haul it behind the RV. Imagine me shaking my head “NO!”
Tuesday evening we had a nice evening visiting with Dwight and Sharon at their campsite and meeting some of their fellow RV friends. Then on Wednesday we drove down to Yuma and found an Escapees park with boondocking sites for $8 a night. Janet and Mellow pulled in the next day and we had an enjoyable time with them. Then we found Cherrill and Jim and had dinner with them. They were the wagon masters on our Canadian Maritimes Tour in 2018. Saturday found us searching the city for Kansas City Chiefs t-shirts so we could properly represent our team at the Super Bowl Party on Sunday. We also strolled around a Renaissance Festival. It was a clear, warm and enjoyable day.
