After leaving the Gila Bend area, we spent five days in an Arizona state park, on the Colorado River. It was beautiful. The above picture is our view through the front window of the motor home. Below is looking across the river – at California.

We’re only about 150 miles into our trip North, heading back home. We are still in the desert we love – just staying for a few days in a different area.
We’ve taken some drives – past little towns that no longer exist except for some foundations and stone fences. We’ve been checking out some other [...]

Quilly-Sister, Brooke, and Cindra decided the move to wordpress was more advantageous than the return to blogspot – so here I am. Thank you so much for your patience while I settle in my new blog home! (Are you still with me?)
We left the RV park this morning and are still traveling in the desert. [...]

Arizona doesn’t ’spring ahead’ to day light savings time – being a state that declares the last thing they need is another hour of daylight. The whole thing about daylight savings time doesn’t make sense to me any longer, it isn’t needed now – but that is very low on my ‘rant’ list. And my [...]

I’m on day 6 without cigarettes! Whew! When does the damned craving stop? Oh well, it will, I know. Meanwhile, I have so much energy that I don’t know what to do with myself. I’ve cleaned everything in the motorhome, rearranged drawers, ‘gourded’, gone for walks, tried to read – and just basically run from [...]

How smart is your right foot? This is so funny that it will boggle your mind. And, you will try it ump-teen-zillion times to see if you can outsmart your foot. But you can’t!!! Try this:

I never should have blogged about what a ‘winner’ I was! I don’t know whether I’ve attracted some bad karma, it’s the way the moon is aligned, or exactly what is going on with me, (probably life), but it just hasn’t been my week.
