And now a little "Boondocking"

Mar 13th
Just sit and enjoy the desert today again. A slight breeze, but warm sun. Tom buys a solar panel and controller from Solar Bills for his motorhome. He will install it himself, once he is home. Tom cooks pork chops for supper, but we eat at our motorhome as Denice still cannot negotiate walking even between the two motorhomes. After Dinner a neighboring motorhome owner offers to sell me his satelite dish for $1000. He does not use it. Its 3 years old and cost $2000 when new. We take my receiver over to his place to try it, and it does find the satelite but the receiver has not been used for the time that we have been down here, so it is needing updates. We leave it overnight to see if it will automatically update.

Wax man on site at 8:45AM and completes job by 10:30AM. He did an excellent job. ELTORO looks pretty shiny!!

I pay the requested $180 and give him a $20 tip for a job well done. The Neals and us are on the road to Quartzsite by 11:00AM. Arrive Quartzsite at about 12:30 PM and park in "Boondocking" area at Mile 112. Just sit back and visit with Tom and Linda for the rest of the day. Denice and Gout still partners and she is in big pain. Unable to do any activity that she needs to stand.
