Last Day in Quartzsite

We all left Quartzsite on Friday. Before we left, Cathy and I went to check out Celia's Rainbow Gardens.
It is a desert botanical garden in memory of Paul Winer's daughter
Celia, who died 3 years after moving to Quartzsite for her health. If
you are ever in Quartzsite check it out. Don't try to find it by the
directions map link. We stopped at the bookstore and asked
directions. Just take the first street west of the bookstore, Plymouth
Ave. Take it north about a mile past the city offices and it is on
your left. Right now they have the Vietnam Memorial Traveling Exhibit
at the park. Denis, Betty and Marjorie went back to finish up Tyson
Wells. When I went to start the motorhome I had a dead battery. Later
I realized I had the router pluged into the cigarette lighter socket
all week and it ran the battery down.
Cathy and I drove down to the Imperial Dam BLM LTVA, near Yuma and
setup camp. Went into Yuma to get the car washed and pickup supplies.
The Lebruns left Quartzsite and spent the night at K-Mart in Blythe,
they will drive to Marjorie's house in Apple Valley, CA on Saturday.
I thought the Vialls, one of our WIT group friends from Breckinridge, spent the winter in Yuma, so we called to see if
they wanted to have lunch with us. They wanted to have lunch, but we
would have to go to Mesa where they are, maybe on the way back. Ralph
said he was at a Swap Meet on Friday and accidentally ran into Adam, another WIT member from Bismarck.
