Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land partly sunny and 39 degrees’ to partly sunny and 64 degrees’. We had an afternoon breeze, if something blocked it you did not need a jacket.
We out early and did laundry, boy was it busy in town at the laundry by eight-thirty and there was two machines open, quad load size and Bonnie got us going on them and I went and got breakfast for us at McDonald’s.
I went over to "Boomerville" where Escapee Boomers have a Rally area every year. I wanted to renew our membership, but it was easier to do online. We tried to have a late lunch early dinner in town and the first place we went was packed out, Mountain Quail café so we went to the "new" place Three Family restaurant as they are new and not known. Good food and service.

Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land partly sunny and 39 degrees’ to partly sunny and 67 degrees’.
Our last full day here this year. Basically getting Buster ready to roll putting things away and cleaning up the area. Our Elk Bof rally collected a large number of pull tabs for Ronald McDonald House. Finding room in Buster to transport them to Phoenix was a challenge. Being able to transfer water into Busters fresh water tank is making the boondocking easier to do. I got this procedure figured out just prior to the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque last September. I went into the big tent early at the opening and made the one purchase I wanted and got out. For dinner our chili chapter group went to thre Grubstake for a three o’clock dinner and had pour service, food was good but took forever. After I built a fire at our fire ring and the group trickled out with their chairs.

Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land mostly cloudy and 40 degrees’ with lower wind to cloudy and 67 degrees’. Last night the wind was pulsing giving Buster a rocking motion from time to time in the evening.
In the late morning some of our chapter #23 members car pooled to the desert bar north of Parker, AZ and off road about five miles into the desert on gravel roads. The bar is only open on weekends and there is no connection to the electric grid, all their electric is solar power. Live music cold drinks everything is run from solar.
On the return to buster we had happy hour out side with the football games played on Buster’s outside television New England Patriots and The NY Giants were the winners.
You can notice from this post that we have stayed away from Quartzsite for a couple of days as the traffic in town is crazy the first weekend of the big tent opening. We will be in there tomorrow, looking for LED lights.

Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land mostly cloudy and 42 degrees’ to mostly cloudy and 67 degrees’ with some rain, most of the rain was after dark.
Not today, pancake breakfast at La Masa RV or "breakfast at the Silver Buckle" the name on the building at La Masa RV sales that is giving free breakfasts and lunch, they were backed out the door on line, we went elsewhere for breakfast today.
Wow they (Rv snowbirds) have arrived the traffic today was at its peak and difficult getting around town. We did get the LED lights replacing the fluorescent bulbs in two fixtures with one stick of LED’s in each fixture and have more light and greatly reduced energy consumed from our batteries. Thank you George B he recommended a sticks and bricks place that is selling the LED lights. Today with the cloud cover solar charging was at a minimum generator time.

Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land partly sunny and 39 degrees’ to partly sunny and 66 degrees’. For a while this afternoon there was full sun and the solar was charging the batteries at 20.5 amps per hour.
We both went to breakfast for biscuits and gravy today then to Parker to pickup mail, and you can never for get uncle Wally.
We had pizza for lunch and dinner (left overs or take home) today. Tomorrow is an up and out early for Buster as he is getting another solar panel.
Saturday, January 14, 2012
Quartzsite, Arizona - Plomosa Road BLM land partly sunny and 33 degrees’ to partly sunny and 65 degrees’. There was a cloud bank that moved thru but that did clear today.
We took Buster into Quartzsite for another solar panel when to dump black and gray water tanks while Buster was there in town. Then fill the fresh water tank. While they were working on Buster we went for pancake breakfast at La Masa RV or "breakfast at the Silver Buckle" the name on th building at La Masa RV sales that is giving free breakfasts and lunch.
NFL football playoffs start today
Five rigs came in today for the Escapee Elk BoF Rally that starts Tuesday. There was a short window of good sun and the batteries were charging at 31.2 amps per hour. Four solar panels two are tilted up for maximum possible charging rate and two flat to the roof. The ones that are flat on the roof would require me to go on top of Buster to tilt them up and I do not go on top. I raise the left side from the side and Buster is positioned mostly east for the best sun and the wind at his back or left side. The morning sun on the windshield is also warming the inside.

Apache Junction, Arizona 46 degrees’ and sunny.
We took our time getting packed up filling the water tank, dumping the holding tanks and moving Buster. Traveling thru Phoenix was going to be the best today and stopped to top off Busters diesel fuel ($3.679 a gallon). It was a nice traveling day two hundred and nineteen miles warm sun and easy traffic.
Yuma, Arizona - Paradise Quechan Indian Casino 77 degrees’ and sunny. They are making some additions to the parking area, adding lights near each end of every other row. There had been rain and some ruts from rigs driving thru puddled water and where there was digging for the electric wires to the light poles.

After we went to an indoor amusement and game activity in Mesa for Avery and we could visit and a nice pizza for dinner.
