We are staying in Quartzsite at Hi-Jolly.  We were able to get one of our favorite sites along the wash – I will take some pictures tomorrow.   Not a lot of people here now but by January it will be packed.  We took a ride around town to see what was open and will be checking out those places in the next few days.   A number of the flea markets/swap meets are not open yet – :-(((…   I don’t buy much but LOVE just walking thru them – LOL.

And I am looking forward to some campfires if the wind dies down…  As well as some great sunrises, sunsets, and star gazing - so stay tuned.

Nevada: Oakridge Road, Manse Road, SR-160; Windmill Lane; I-215; I-515; US-95
