All the way to Yuma


Looks like we picked up a new decal on the way down: one of the Maple leafs stuck to the back and collected a little dirt underneath.  Then the leaf dried out and fell off leaving this. 

I managed to get out fishing a couple times but only landed one striper.  Oh well, no fish dinners yet.  But we did re-appreciate the views on the mesa (has it really only been 6 months?)



So we stayed at Overton for a few days, leaving on Nov 8th for Quartzite and our favourite spot on Plomosa Road (33.76709, -114.17674).  Pretty quiet around her right now.  Then on Nov 15 we trekked down to Yuma and stopped at a new-to-us BLM area: the VFW Quarry (32.73837, -114.43000).  Nice little spot, right beside the canal and handy to Yuma, but a bit noisier than Plomosa Road with the trains, gravel plant, and crop dusters.  But there are also many many worse places to sleep. 

Here for a few days and then heading over to Borrego Springs CA to spend American Thanksgiving with the Boondockers.
