Friday February 1st






We decided that there was no rush to move on down the road so we might as well stay an extra day in Quartzsite. Treated ourselves to a showere this morning (still working off the tank of water we took on Sunday), made an extra pot of coffee, and caught up on the 'puter work a bit.
Since we'd decided to hang around Quartzsite for another day we asked around to see if anything interesting was happening in the area. Turns out there was going to be a black powder rendezvous over in Boise, about 25 miles. Seizing the opportunity to both go for a tour and see something neither of us had before, away we went.
Took a little driving to find the rendezvous, and it was somewhat less that we expected. The club members dressed up in the 1800's costumes & whatnot, but we really couldn't get very close to the shooting. Coming back we stopped in at a few more tents in Quartzsite and then back home for cocktails and a dinner of steaks, baked potatoes, and corn (you're thinking: didn't they eat the exact same thing yesterday? NO! This time we had corn instead of brown beans. Totally different.)
There's been a lot of demand to replace the picture I took off the blog last week, and since I'm getting short of interesting photos right now I'm putting it back in - shhhh! Don't tell Don.
