Our Location today is La Posa South
L.T.V.A., Quartzsite, Arizona, U.S.A.
We had slightly milder
temperatures last night but still not enough to open the windows. We managed to
be out of bed before 8:00 but it was going to be another of those days where
the Sun would stay hidden for most
of the day behind of the Clouds.
Once breakfast was behind
us we settled in at the Computers
with a Hot Lemon Ginger Tea in an
attempt to help break the remaining Congestion
that we are both experiencing. We are still having balancing issues because of
the Congestion so one of the things I
did was research where the Pharmacies
were in Quartzsite.
Another thing was trying to add certain Apps
to our Cell Phones that we feel
will be beneficial to both of us. However even though I had the phone connected
to the Internet by our MiFi the message kept appearing saying
that it wasn’t connected.
We have been set up here at
La Posa South
LTVA for a month as well as our
friends Wayne and Sue who were parked about Five Hundred Feet away giving us
both some privacy. When you register at the LTVA Office they tell you to
park anywhere you like but just be considerate of your neighbours. By 10:00
this morning an “A” Class Motorhome decided that he wanted to
park right between our two Trailers even though there was plenty of space beyond
Wayne and Sue’s Trailer.
For lunch today Kathy said
she was using up more Leftovers.
With a Single Bagel to use she used
the last of the Sliced Ham and added
a few Potato Chips. For dessert she
used the last of the Strawberries making
another Strawberry Sponge Cupcake.
We were starting to feel
closed in because of the Crud and the
Cloudy Weather so we didn’t wait too
long after finishing lunch to head to Quartzsite. We went to locate the Pharmacies that were listed On-Line. The first was an easy find but they were closed because it’s
Sunday. Not like back in Ontario where they are open Seven Days a Week in these small towns
lots of things are closed on the Weekends.
We went looking for the second
location but it seems the Street Name
has been changed and the Website was never corrected. The Pharmacy is attached to a Medical Center.
We didn’t want to go where
there were large crowds and instead of heading back Home
we stopped at Dorothy & Toto’s
Ice Cream Parlour. We each had a small cone but the coolness on our throats
was really soothing.
The temperature was
supposed to reach 75 F (24 C) but with the cool North Breeze we were getting it felt a
lot cooler.
For supper we grilled a
couple of Hamburgers on our Weber and had a Tropical Applesauce for our dessert.
Even though we are “Off the Grid” we still use a fair
amount of Electricity charging our Cell Phones running our Computers, Lights and CPAP Machines.
Since it has been so cloudy the last couple of days we ran our Honda Generator for a Half Hour to top up our Batteries.
We are hoping we feel better
tomorrow if not we’ll keep ourselves busy and entertained. Thanks for following along, feel free to

It’s about time.

Gosh I hate it when people do that ... park too close. I think they must be used to RV parks where you are only two feet apart. I have picked up and moved several times when they do that to me in the desert.
ReplyDeleteWith regard to downloading the apps... go to settings, cellular and make sure 'Apps' is on (green) there's a little slider thingy for on/off. You can't connect any app if it is turned off in settings. Remember to turn it off again so you don't use up all your data. Alternately, find a free wifi somewhere and use someone else's wifi data.
ReplyDeleteParking too close is definitely a cardinal sin in the desert. But by parking too close you can sure meet some neat people. We had a couple who parked about 30 feet away from us and within a day we were great friends. Generally people are nice and you can all get along. Hope you and Kathy feel better soon.
