Quartzite to Casa Grande

We arrived at Foothills West RV Resort yesterday afternoon after an uneventful drive from the desert. We got the last available spot, so we are parked in the hinterlands where RVs are stored and dumpsters stationed.........but it is next to the doggie park, and on the west side are the shuffleboard courts and horseshoe pits.....so pretty quiet. It is a constant parade of residents going to the dumpsters. My first morning survey says about 90% of the garbage brigade are men with about 90% of them arriving on foot versus car or golf cart. Oh dear, I need to get a life.

Cooper seemed to remember his old hood and has checked out every bush and tree and haunt from last year. I drove up the street where we were parked last year, and the lady with her old old trailer and patio tent is still in residence! I'm much happier back here!!

My only plans are to find a hair salon and visit the quilt shop on Monday. Today is the last day of the big quilt show in Phoenix, but since I just attended one last week, I'll pass. I saw a carload of women leave this morning so suspect that was their destination.

We left Rod and Karen in desert to await the car show next week. They will probably come this way after that, but I'm afraid they won't be able to stay here. Perhaps across the road at Val Vista. That is where the Canadians will be within a week.

So all is well in the southwest. But the clouds are rolling in and rain is predicted for later today and tomorrow. I need to start reading another book!

Ciao
