We made it out of California this morning! The last 20 miles involved driving on new-graveled highway—what a mess! I was afraid we might have coated the front of the car, but it was fine when I stopped to check.
We are at Holt’s Shell Station and RV park for tonight at the crossroads of I-8 and Butterfield Trail in Gila Bend, AZ.
The desert air is crisp and feels so inviting. I have missed it. We have the air conditioner running instead of the heater. I expect the heater will be on tomorrow morning as mornings are a bit too chilly for Larry.
This place is interesting. In addition to a Shell fuel station for autos and big trucks and a RV park, it offers free water and dump station to desert campers as well as a touch of Mexico for shoppers.
And for those who want to shop in Mexico without crossing the border, here you go:
Didn’t see your heart’s desire? Walk around the corner.
I wanted to adopt this flower, but it was $129. A bit beyond my budget!
It’s five foot tall and would have added some life to our yard in Texas! Well it was fun looking, but I don’t have ANY room in the truck, camper or car for “treasures.” We are loaded to the brim!
Tomorrow night we are going to live in a bit of luxury at the Fiesta Grande RV Resort in Casa Grande. Our friends Mary and Jerry are there for the winter season. I noticed it was a Passport America park and called for one night’s reservation. It is a super nice park! It is fun to splurge once in a while! More tomorrow night.
