While I am thinking of a title for my blog, I'll go ahead and blog on. I want to think of an amazing, eye-catching, original title.
Right now I'm sitting at an RV Park at Gila Bend, Arizona, in the Sonoran Desert. This is one of my favorite places on earth; I've been here since December 10, 2008. My plans to leave on April 10, 2009, went ahead, and I went to the Painted Rock Petroglyphs to spend the next 10 days.
The ten days I stayed there were an amazing experience. The area is BLM land and has no amenities, so dry-camping was my only choice. A big, fully-equipped motorhome with generator, inverter, propane, 90-gallon water tank all insured that my playing pioneer was a success.
My great-grandparents left Georgia heading for Texas; the trip took them 14 years. What would they have thought of my lack of modern conveniences? I did find that I do love dry-camping and will be doing so as much as possible. .
My feelings of total peace with my world dissipated in the time it took to try to close the slides, and they refused to budge. What????? Both living room slides stayed in place. Fortunately, that day some other campers had arrived, and they came to my aaid by pushing the slides in while I pushed the switches inside.
I was able to get back to Gila Bend and my western home. Presently, I am awaiting an appointment to get the slides repaired, so that I can continue my westward trek.
