Yuma, Arizona 41 degrees mostly sunny. Temperature went to 75 today no wind to notice a nice day.

We skipped lunch and drove to Senators Wash dry camping (or Boondocking) on US Government "Bureau of Land Management " (BLM) land.

BLM Burros
We saw these burros in one area drove past them twice and they never moved, just wiggled their ears.

Field crops and Date Palms
This BLM land is about twenty miles north of the casino on S 24 road, in California. The drive is thru the vegetable farms and Date palms and desert areas along the Colorado River. There also was an RV park close to the river.

RV Park
Latter George & Bonnie had dinner at the Paradise Casino with Mike & Lamie and John & Trudie.

Yuma, Arizona 30 degrees mostly sunny


Latter post:

It got up to 57 degrees mostly sunny less wind making a nicer day.

George & Bonnie went to the Arizona Marketplace touring the vendors with a few things sticking to our fingers (buying). Mike & Lamie were there also as we saw The Ranch decal on the car, the Alaska licence plate also helped make their car standout in our eye.

I took pictures of some fittings used to create the tents the vendors use. I sent the pictures in an e-mail to our son in law to think over if they want to make a shade cover for use at the softball tournaments this summer.

Buster packed up and moved back to the Paradise casino this morning, he got only one night in the RV park to do the tanks. We are in the same spot with Mike and Lamie E's rig in front to the left and John & Trudie moved back from Los Algodones Road where they spent last night. That was near the spot we spent a couple of weeks last year. They are in the same spot also at the Paradise casino.
The above named had lunch at the Quechan casino today. Friday the crew will go to Los Algodones, MX. Buster is parked only eight miles from there and we will car pool to the boarder and leave the cars in a parking lot operated by the Quechan Indian reservation

Silver Sally and Buster Brown in a campground
We moved Buster for one night stay in a campground with full hookups for Buster. Drain the holding tanks and fill the water tank. Do laundry ten days worth and take showers with the water running all the time to really get clean. It has been since January 4, taking long showers.

Even Silver Sally and Buster Brown got cleaned up while in the campground. Looks like Buster Brown will have a new friend soon, more information on that another day.
