*********************************
From Tucson we went to Casa Grande and the Rovers’ Roost Escapee RV Park for a sense of normality (after the strangeness of Tucson); to see old friends; visit their great outlet mall; and, of course, catch up on the clean-up and laundry.
What were we thinking . . . Quartzsite during the RV Show and the Big Tent . . . total insanity, but we did it. Again this will be the last time we go to Quartzsite during the BIG TENT!!
Quartzsite – Good People
Having said that: it wasn’t all bad. We got a chance to visit with old friends:
- Gordon and Lil have been part of our RVing life almost from the very beginning;
Fred beside Lil & Gordon
- We went to both the Escapees Happy Hours;
- We visited with Elizabeth (whose painting of Palm Canyon hangs in our Motor Home) and John at Prospector's Panorama;
- Diane and Andy who we shared a lot of our travels with last year; and
- Paul and the folks at the the Oasis Book Store’s Authors Fair – all extraordinary folks.

Glad to hear you had a good time in the madness of Quartzsite. I too find the RV show and the "downtown" overwhelming and swear I won't do it again....and I manage to do the friends of Q, while avoiding most of the traffic etc by hanging out at Boomerville and other spots and avoiding 4 corners. Anyway missed this year because I was in Ecuador.
I love Tucson, as cities go, but yes, this year was scary. The site is close to where my cousin used to live, I have shopped in that particular Safeway so it all seemed way too personal. And one wonders if something positive may come out of dialog about our divisive political dialog...actually no longer dialog, just divisiveness.--Betty
