R & R in Palm Springs



Bill, Mary, Philip, Gisele, Maureen and Geoff
We are enjoying our time here in Palm Springs. The weather's great and it's an easy life. We connected with some friends from France, Mary & Philip Congdon and Maureen & Geoff Mansell-Ward and had a nice dinner on our RV.

Texas to Palm Springs

Under the USA's largest chime in Gruene, Texas
A music venue in Gruene, Texas
We visited with a friend Mike in New Braunfels, Texas who took us to an old Texas music hall, Gruene Hall, in Gruene, Texas. We enjoyed some Texas country music and walked the interesting town.

Along the road in Arizona

We spent the next 3 days traveling before arriving in Quartzite Arizona, dry camping out in the desert for 4 days. It was very scenic with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains and beautiful sunsets. We'd take the motorcycle into town about 5 miles away and spend the day walking and shopping. We'd then return the our RV for drinks and dinner under the big sky.

Desert scenery

We've finally arrived at a campground where we'll be staying for a few days and can update the blog and email. It's in the Palm Springs area in Desert Hot Springs on the northern outskirts of town.

passing through Phoenix

A quick not to say we're in Phoenix, Arizona heading towards Quartzite also in Arizona. Will not have internet for a few days, since we'll be in the middle of the desert, but will try to post photos in near future.

Arrival in Dallas

Just a quick note to let our blog followers know that we arrived well, but tired and jet lagged at our campground in Dallas. Will post again soon after a few good nights of rest and when we have something to post.
