On March 24th, 2023 we traveled west with me driving – slowly getting use to the MH. We made it to Dateland where we took a break and got a date shake – YUM!
Andy took over after that. We made a stop for fuel in Yuma where we disconnected and he went to the park while I went to Sun Vista RV Park.
In January, they had a craft sale and were chancing off a quilt. Well I won it… So I went to their quilting group, met the quilters and collected my winning quilt. Here it is.
Isn’t it beautiful. It will be staying here in the RV.
After setting up and getting fuel for the car, we stopped at the Amvets for supper. Yum!

Saturday found us at the Marketplace where we picked up a few items and we got a really nice bike rack for the car. Andy has been struggling with the one we have so it is nice to have one that will make it easier on both of us.
On Sunday, my birthday, we cleaned out the shed – WOW! Was it dusty. So we packed up items that will be going to PA and everything else went into totes. Hopefully the dust will not get into the totes.
We finished the evening at the Ice Cream Social! Nice end to my day!

On Monday, we went to Los Algodones to see Dr. Roberto (Acre of The Smille Shoppe). Andy had a few problems but Dr. Roberto fixed him up. I had the final pin put in and an impression done. Afterwards, we stopped at one of the restaurants that we used to go to years ago.
Garlic Shrimp and Margaritas – YUM!
And music:
Here is the outside area – you can see Andy on the left at the bar:
By mid-afternoon, we were heading across the border. There was no line –
The border wall:

On Tuesday, 28th, we went to EATS (Asian Buffet) to celebrate all the March and September birthdays from the park. Great eats – LOL!
------------
On Wednesday, 29th, we were back across the border to finish up my tooth. Too early in the morning for a margarita so it will have to wait until next season – LOL!
As many of you know, I have problems finding a hairdresser on the road that deals with natural curly hair. In January, on a recommendation from a friend, I went to Traci at All Seasons Beauty Bar. She shaped me up from a bad haircut in October. So I was able to get in with her this week. Since I am trying to grow my hair a little longer, she did a great job with cutting and shaping. She is definitely on my list for next season! Cool thing is she use to live near me in PA – small world.
We finished the day with a get together with Barb and Larry getting caught up.

Today, Thursday, 30th, was laundry and pack up day. But I was able to get a few more pictures around the park.
Our lot here in Yuma:
We are surrounded by park models. At first I did not like it but realize it does offer us a lot of privacy.
Behind the motorhome:
The bricks are the edge of our lot. If we decide to keep this lot, we will probably put a fence along the back and partway up the sides.
Our shed:
The shed is not in the best of shape and we are planning to replace it.
The view from the back of the lot:
Our plans are to add more concrete, get a better and bigger shed with maybe a patio and pavers in the back. However, if there is another lot available with a newer shed, we may take that one instead. I am still undecided – LOL!
Our ocotillo is in bloom:
Our cactus is just starting to bud – we will miss it – :
Our neighbors azalea – Beautiful!:
More flowers in the park:
My greeter:
This was only a short stay. We will be here longer next season!
Tomorrow we begin our slow journey east, first stop is Casa Grande. So stay tuned and enjoy today.
