Quartzsite & Palm Springs

Friday, January 23rd
We arrived in Quartzsite,at 5:30 just in time for a drink with our GMC friends the Engmans, the Youngs and our hosts, John & Hazel Sanders who live here in the winter and in Ranier, OR in the summer.

Saturday, January 24th
Norm took us in to the big RV show and en route we saw RVs parked as far as the eye can see. John tells us that there are estimated to be over a million people here at this time in January, many are Canadians and most of them, from Alberta. We left at noon for Palm Springs but we plan on returning to Q in a week or so. The trip to PS was two hours. We connected with Glenda & Ken Porter (she's a nursing classmate of mine)at the Tall Timbers Resort in Palm Desert. After getting cleaned up the four of us went to Mary & George Nagles for dinner and to watch the sunset from their patio. Shirley Atkinson came from Green Valley and joined us too. We four gals are all grads from VGH Class of 1959. It was a great evening!
