Our Location today is La Posa South
L.T.V.A., Quartzsite, Arizona, U.S.A.
Once again those of us that are
advertising the Blogger Fest on our Sites are really hoping that if anyone
is reading this they will stop in if they are in the area of La Posa South LTVA near Quartzsite this coming Saturday the 27th
between 1-4 pm at the Ramada (Pavilion). This is not just for RV Bloggers but Followers as well, so feel free to stop in for a visit.
Since we had plans for this morning, we
set the alarm before going to bed last night. It was a good thing too because
covering yourself up to keep warm without the use of a heater definitely makes
you sleep more soundly and even your body loses track of time.
When we started opening the Window Shades this morning we didn’t
have to worry about the Sun being
too bright. The clouds were so thick we wondered how many layers of clothing we’d
need to wear to keep warm. We spent a short while on our Computers because we had things to do and someplace to be. Kathy
was feeling the Congestion building again.
It was over Eighteen Hours since she
last took the Mucinex. With my encouragement she took another
to start her day.
Once I’d finished my inside chores I had
more to do outside. We still had the Fresh
Water Barrel that was too heavy to lift from the Truck. Remember our not so short Showers we took last night? I replaced the water we used and by the
time I refilled the Fresh Water Tank
in the Trailer there was only Fifteen Gallons left in the Barrel which I easily lifted from the Truck.
Even though our Luncheon Date was for 11:30 and on a normal day we could be there in
Fifteen Minutes I convinced Kathy to
leave around 10:45. We had barely left the front gate at La Posa South when the traffic started slowing down. It may have been a week day but
there were still plenty of people heading to the RV Show near the Big Tent.
It took over a Half Hour to travel
that distance.
We had convinced our friends Gordon and
Sheryl that they had to try the Cowboy Nachos
that are served every Thursday at the Mainstreet
Restaurant.
When we walked in the owner Michelle immediately knew why we were there and came
to apologize. They were having a hard time keeping up with regular orders and
had suspended the Luncheon Specials
for the rest of January. When Gordon and Sheryl arrived, we gave them the bad
news but that didn’t matter we all chose something from the Salad Part of the Menu.
Enjoying lunch with Sheryl and Gordon. |
When we first met these wonderful people
we just seemed to click and today was no different. We seem to have the same
likes and dislikes as well as our opinions on many subjects were the same. The conversation
never stopped the entire time we were having our meal. Since the Restaurant was filling up and people were waiting to get in we suggested
they come back to our Trailer.
Getting out of the parking lot onto Main Street was a little tricky because the traffic was nearly non-stop but I took
my time so they could catch up. When we reached La Posa South I took the long slow drive over the Wash north of the paved road. They
teased us about taking the scenic route.
Saying So Long to Gordon and Sheryl after a Pleasant Visit. |
Even though the sky was suddenly very
clear, with the 25 MPH Wind Gusts we
sat inside and the conversation picked up where it left off on everything from Grandchildren, to Batteries in our RVs, Places we’ve all been, to LTVAs. They have often boondocked on BLM lands but had never stayed in LTVAs. They could not believe how
inexpensive it is. They might be spending more time moving around the LTVAs. Time just flew by and it was nearly 3:00 when we said our “See you again soon”. They’ll be
leaving next week but should be back next month. They really want to try those Cowboy Nachos.
They are headed for their next adventure. |
Yesterday when we drove around looking
for Jim and Barb’s Trailer from the Blog Jim and Barb’s RV Adventure, I mention how we checked their normal area but didn’t see them there
before extending our search. Following Jim’s instructions, we went back to where
we looked yesterday and sure enough we had seen their trailer but didn’t
recognize it.
When we saw the door was open I gave a
lite knock Daisy and Dakota immediately came to the door excited they had
company. I think I woke Jim from his afternoon Siesta. He razed us about ending up in the Clothing Optional Area. Barb was out running errands but soon Steve and Debbie McCormack from the Blog Down the Road came
across the path and joined in on the visit. Soon Barb came driving up seeing a
small crowd gathered at their spot. I had to postpone our planned Campfire for tonight due to the high winds but the wind
should calm down in the next day and we might even see them at the Blogger-Fest.
It was past 4:00 when we took off. Kathy
didn’t feel like cooking so we decided to just go to McDonalds for our supper. We were surprised how few people were there
when we arrived but by the time we left the place was filling up.
That's a Jet Drive on the rear. The License says it all. |
Anyone that says you don’t see anything
interesting at McDonalds should come to Quartzite. Not only do you see Antiques
driving the streets or Classics using
the Drive Thru, you also see unique Amphibian Vehicles stopping in.
Another great Sunset. |
Another great day meeting up with
friends and making plans for the future. Thanks
for following along, feel free to leave a comment and click on the pictures to
enlarge them. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Clothing optional area? Good heavens, I'm glad I never parked there by mistake!!!
ReplyDeleteglad to see you met up with Gordon and Cheryl. they are real nice folks! We will be seeing them this summer at one of our rallies. Maybe we can meet up next winter when we come back south. It would be great if you could come to some of our activities during our rally in QZ.
