An exceptionally beautiful  day today.  Sunny, warm and no wind.  We went into Quartzsite in the morning to check out the various venues for vendors.  Not much left  Main Street Merchants seemed busy and still had most of the vendors.  Only the tool places in the metal buildings and a few in front of the buildings left at the Main Event.  Tyson Wells only had the vendors along the street left.  Tyson Center was mostly still there.  La Mesa RV was gone.  Johnson RV had a Brave exactly like ours for $39,900.  We stopped at the Bakery and spent $13.45, I'm eating one of the peanut butter short cake cookies right now.  We dumped the tanks and filled with water at La Posa South and then headed for Imperial Dam.  We stopped at Stone Cabin for ice cream.  They were doing resurfacing in front of Stone Cabin and you had to wait for a pilot vehicle.  The vendor at Stone Cabin said it really was good for business.  We got back to Ocotillo Flat at the Imperial Dam LTVA at 400 PM.  I quickly unhitched the Jeep and parked the motor home and we went to Happy Hour at Jack and Millie's.  I then went for the mail while Cathy made dinner.  We had a camp fire at dark and I stayed until about  815 PM.  There was a crescent moon and the temperature at that time was 68 degrees.  The over night low at Quartzsite was 51 degrees and the high at Imperial Dam was 80 degrees.
