California, then Arizona.

Well, it has been a week since the last posting. Today, we are sitting in Kingsley in a great RV park in Quartzsite, AZ after spending the last two nights at our GMC friend's place here.
We had a wonderful week in Palm Springs in spite of the inclement weather. The rental car helped alot! We were invited out for dinner twice last week and it was nice to have our own wheels!
Alan played handball at the Palm Desert Athletic Club three times last week and was in handball heaven!!! Lots of new friendships there. I can probably get him back to the desert again next year based on the handball thing alone!
The bad weather was rolling in on Sunday as we left the PS area and yesterday was unsettled here. Today, however was a beautiful day.
We rode our bikes around town today and will go back tomorrow to pick up the bargains. Things are starting to wind down here. Last month, there were over a million people here and in another month is will be deserted. The permanent population of Quartzsite is 3000 people. The temps reach 120 degrees in the middle of the summer!
This weekend we will head south to Yuma and then to Mexico on the 25th.
