It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Making Plans For Our Homeward Trek.


Our Location today is at the La Posa South, LTVA, Quartzsite, Arizona.

As soon as I got up at 7:30 the first thing I did was to turn on our Blue Flame Heater to take the Chill out of the Trailer. It must have been due to the higher Humidity because the Sun was already busy charging our Batteries along with the slight Northerly Wind. After opening our Window Shades I could see that the overnight wind had again moved the Camping Chair that no longer closes back towards the Firepit. We have plenty of Firewood so this has to be a Sign to use it up.
Kathy was up shortly after 8:00 and while we ate breakfast we watched as the Clouds started filling the Sky. We enjoyed our Coffee/Tea at the Computers. Many of the Canadian RV Blogs we have been reading have many of our fellow Ontarians slowly making their way East while watching the Storms that are around them. That was when we realized that we had not yet thought of which way we would be going when we leave Quartzsite in the next Two and a Half Weeks. We also realized that because of the unusual weather for this time of year that we haven’t gotten a lot of our Projects completed yet.
After completing our inside chores we created our own version of French Onion Soup were we used Crackers as a base and used a mix of Two different Shredded Cheeses. We buttered up some Jalapeno Bread to have as a side but Kathy opted to give me all the Peppers from her slice.
With the North Wind causing our Propane Alarm to go off again we ended up boiling the Water on the Stove so we could clean up our dishes. With that out of the way we brought out the Maps and charted an approximate course that we’ll be ourselves travelling as we head east. Using that as guide we started researching things to see and distances between our stops. Every year we say we are going to shorten our travel days so that is what we are trying to do. Of course all that can change in the blink of an eye all depending on the Weather.
After spending most of the afternoon doing that we grilled a Store Bought Thin Crust Barbecue Chicken Pizza on the Weber. With the Wind coming from the Roadside of the Trailer it only took Twenty-Five Minutes for it to be perfectly cooked from Frozen.
It was amazing the way the Sun put on quite a show as it set because of the Clouds. The Wind seemed to calm down shortly after it got dark. Thank you for following along and feel free to leave a comment.
Be Safe and Enjoy!

It’s about time.

  3. It is March and I agree that if you hadn't started to plan your route, 'It's About Time'. :)
    We know things can change even though we are ones (the 4 of us) like to have things mapped out with definite destinations in mind. A slow trek for the remainder of our route will have us in Ontario on Apr. 6.
    Soup and pizza both looked good. Hope the weather cooperates for your last 2 1/2 weeks.

  4. You can make all the plans to see and travel as you want, but sometimes the weather throws it all out the window and you have to adjust to it.

  5. I'm hoping the wind is over or at least calms down. Hope the weather cooperates with your travel plans to head home.
