There are RVs parked everywhere along US95.
This is what a lot of them come here for, the annual RV show.
This is the ROADRUNNER Market where we did most of our shopping. We were almost to the flying field when I remembered I had
left the batteries for the plane at the motor home. We made a quick trip back to pick them up and
went back to the field. There was a good
turnout with just about all of the 20 tables they have in use. I was surprised to see an electric powered Vortex like mine there. I put in a couple of flights before Barry showed up in the Can-Am, talked with Vera and watched me fly before heading back to find Mona who he had dropped off at the Flea Market. I had a good time visiting with the guys and even remembered some names from last time.
I used up all five batteries I had, I was the only one there by then as everyone had left about noon. They start pretty early and all leave once the wind comes up. We did a little shopping at the Family Dollar store and then had Blizzards and Subway sandwiches for lunch.
We saw a sign for the Hi Jolly monument and decided to find it. I took a wrong turn so we went exploring and ended up at the Dome Road, we have been seeing signs for Dome Mountain so we took it. When it turned to gravel we took some pictures and headed back to Quartzsite. In the distance beyond the end of the road you can see all the RV's along US95. The Road Runner BLM 14 day camping area is somewhere out there.
We could see these hills in the distance, we wondered if one of them was Dome Mountain.
This is the Dome Mountain BLM 14 day camping area that is a little West of Quartzsite.
I managed to find the monument this time, it turned out to be part of the cemetery.
I took some pictures and we looked around before heading back to Roadrunner.
I started charging batteries and then took a ride with Barry in the Can-Am and explored the area.
We found a million dollar motor home parked out in the desert along with every other type of RV you can imagine.
Brent and Mona are checking out Mona's Flea Market purchases.
Mona and Lynne had quite an adventure getting these 4 foot square panels back to the camp site. They had to reach out the windows of Lynne's SUV and hold them on the top as they drove back. Each of the panels has a different design.This is our circle of motor homes, Graham is sitting by his Ventana LE on the right. Then our Intruder, you can see the front of Brent's Earth Cruiser in front of ours. Next is Barry and Mona's Cayman XL and you can just see the rear of Mark and Lynne's Phaeton.
I spent the
evening out by Barry's fire pit visiting with everyone.
