Dome Rock BLM, Quartzite AZ
I had become quite accustomed to our little group of
women remaining after the RV’ing Women Rally.
I thought I might be camping alone as the rally ended and there was an exodus
of RV’s as folks returned to their homes. Maybe a dozen women stayed another
week; then it was down to me, Jeanne, Roz, and Deb. We went out to dinner, took
walks, played cribbage, and enjoyed several really nice camp fires. But, our
time ran out, and everyone had a different destination – so we have scattered
like leaves in the wind - until next time.

My move was a whole 14 miles, and that included the trip
to RV Pit Stop to dump and fill up my fresh water tank!
Dome Rock is a familiar place – this will be the third time I’ve camped here
for the annual Molded Fiberglass Trailer Rally. It’s quite a big deal – last
year I think there were almost 200 people here. But, several days before the
pre-rally even starts, there are only about a half-dozen of us. Jon (
Jon's Journeys) is still in
his 17’ Escape, although he has a new 21’ on order! He's here with
his camera taking great pictures (I may just point you to his blog for some of
them); Glenda (
Casita Escapes), who I saw last weekend at ‘Bloggerfest’ is already here in her
Casita.
The weather is definitely cooperating!

No wind and a very warm day – the perfect opportunity to try out the sun
shades for my awning! The front awning is super simple (not quite the full
length of my awning – but the next size up would have been too long). The side
blocker only came in one size and it is clearly meant for a much bigger motor
home. However, I think if I turn it upside down and backwards and add some
grommets, it will not only fit my awning but wrap around to the front just a bit
and cover the gap caused by the too short front piece.

Anyway, it was lovely to sit outside and enjoy the view in the cool of the
shade. My very own ‘Arizona Room’. I cooked dinner outside and ate while
watching the sunset.

Like your sunshades! Will be there tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe trio of eggs that just pulled in to the ridge are friends from the Southeast. Go say hi if you are close!
I think I met them today - nice women! It will be good to visit with you. I'm on the main level, East end with a rainbow windsock.
