Quartzsite - Finally

Well as they say, if something can go wrong, it will and thats what happened with the repair of our RV. After having the part delivery delayed, it finally arived and was installed - BUT THEN - the Ford dealer couldn't get our unit to start. There was no power at all to the engine or chassis and they couldn't figure out why. They called Gary to come out and see if it was the security system - But it wasn't. So at 6 pm it was check back into the Hotel for yet another night. The next morning the dealer found that a connection on one of the solenoids had not been tightened and once that was done our unit started with no problem.

Fianlly at about 2 Pm we got on our way and after an interesting roller coaster ride on US 95 through eastern California we again got to Quartzsite at about 6 pm Arizona time.

We are now dry camping in town and spent the day exploring the various flea markets. - The town is actually one BIG flea market.

Judy and Lori have had a great time looking at the Gems and jewelry and of course spening money on same while Moe and Gary have shown great restraint in this Giant RV/Tool store.

We will be heading to Yuma tomorrow and have reservations at the Pilot Mound RV Site there.

Next up date will be Sunday or Monday.
