I have started the blog again. I was talking this afternoon with a friend (Ron Morgan) and he was saying he missed the blog. For several reasons I took some time off, mostly just lazy. But we spent many months just helping some friends or visiting with the kids and grandkids so there was not much to write about. I know many of you enjoyed following the blog and I should of handled it a lot better. But I am back at it and will keep posting. I know there will be times when we are not doing much but will still try and make it interesting. We are in Quartzsite Az and will be here from November until the end of February (2013). We are both doing well, Pepper is having lots of problems with her back legs. She is on meds and has to be helped up stairs. She turned 14 in July so she has a lot of years on her.
I have a lot of catching up to do on a few things that have happen to us the past few months. So over the next few months I will post a little of what we have been doing and our future plans. But currently we are sitting here in Quartzsite and enjoying the good weather. We were able to sit outside in shorts and tee shirts while having a cocktail. Quartzsite is starting to fill up with the snowbirds. The population during most of the year is around 2000 people but come mid January there will be over 100,000 people in the area. They have a huge flea market and gem and bead show during January and February which draw snowbird from all over the USA. It is expected to have 1400 vendors here selling everything from a pair of socks to a huge motorhome. The pictures posted are from the past few days. Some of the sunrises are worth getting up for. We like to get out into the desert and wander around where no one else goes. We like the feeling of being out where most humans have not walked before. We found a path most likely made by migrating animals which lead us to an old Ironwood tree, with some research discovered the tree is the oldest living thing in the area at 1050 years old.
