Good Morning from Quartzsite

It's 0730 and cold, just got up and turned the furnace on to warm things up - the sun is just breaking over the mountains.  I was able to hook into someone's wireless connection - 

 

Today we are going up to Lake Havsau to visit Bob and Georgia Williams - we know Bob from back in Boise days.   We plan on spending a couple days with them, today watch the Seahawks (Go Seahawks) and then look around Lake Havasu.  On Tuesday we come back to Quartzsite and on Wednesday "The Big Tent Sale".

 

We are having a good time, seeing the sights here in the desert.  on Friday we went out in the desert with everyone in two Jeeps (yup, but not four wheeling) to where General Patton trained his troops back in World War II before going to the middle east.  It interesting the soldiers placed rock around their tents to outside them and paths to different areas.  We enjoyed walking around through the area, it runs for miles and miles but we only looked a small area.  Just a note General Patton is buried in Luxembourg and we saw his grave and those of 5800 American soldiers that were killed there the Battle of the Bulge WWII.
