We are now established in spot 222 at the Indian Waters RV Resort in Indio CA.(Palm Springs area).
We left Talent Oregon early on the 27th and after 800 kms arrived at Harris Ranch near Fresno CA. We dry camped in their very large parking lot and had a decent but expensive meal in their restaurant. We also sampled their Margaritas which were superb.
The next day we drove about 600km to Desert Pools resort just north and west of Palm Springs where we enjoyed their hot pools and had a quiet night.
Today we set off at 10am for the 45 km drive to our home for the next week - Indian Waters. Indian Waters is a very nicely laid out and comfortable resort in a residential area of Indio.
After arriving and setting up we then did what all good Canadian consumers do - we went shopping at Costco for food and alcohol as well as other consumer tempting items.
And so begins our holiday in the southern USA..

26 February-Gary & Judy are on their way
We have finally gotten on our way south to Palm Springs and other points in
Arizona and California.
On the 25th we left Vancouver and after a 1 hour wait to cross the border were
waved right through. That night we stayed at the Lucky Eagle Casino in
Rochester Washington ( just south of Olympia) We arrived in time for Seniors
night and enjoyed a very good Seafood Buffet for only $6.95 each.

Tonight we are in Talent Oregon and tomorrow we head towards Stockton Ca. The
weather has been great and we hope it stays that way.
Will update again once we get to Indio and Palm Springs ( scheduled for 29 Feb)

FEB 19 -GARY IS 62 AND WE ARE READY TO HEAD OUT
Yesterday was Judy's Birthday and today is Gary's birthday. We did nothing special except load the RV. Tomorrow we head to Vancouver and then on Monday Feb 25 we head south to Palm Springs and then Arizona.
Its been quite a week getting ready. A one year old clamp on the RV Rad hose broke and the Ford dealer is giving us the run around saying there is no proof the clamp is only one year old even tho Ford replaced all the Rad hoses last year in Bullhead City. We have to try and get the Bullhead City dealer to cover the cost. Typical Ford Warranty service. NONE.
But enough of the woes. We have had great weather to get the RV ready in and are looking forward to a great trip.
