Backed into my corner

quartzsite-rich-flag.JPGThis morning in Quartzsite dawned a bit cloudy, and the usual break of the sun over the mountains was obscured by my new neighbors in their enormous fifth wheel trailer. Colder air has come in to southern Arizona too, all of which added up to a lot more power usage (for the furnace) and not much solar gain. I’m glad I had already decided to go today.

Amazingly I managed to get home without encountering another rock in the windshield or ripping parts off the trailer. So Eleanor may allow me another trip by myself someday. I even backed the trailer into the carport myself, a tricky job, and got everything set up for the family to come home tonight.

At this point we have to resume the house project. Those of you who are interested primarily in travel stories will need to avert your eyes for a while. Our next firm travel date is in March, but I am hoping to put together a couple of short trips before then. We also have a few other interesting things planned locally, while the Airstream is parked in its corner awaiting us.
