Stre-e-e-e-etch!

Hello from Organ Pipe Cactus Nat Mon

Last week we had to take a little jaunt down to Mexico.  Dave had some dental work that was long overdue and we found a dentist in Sonoyta (only 40 miles from Ajo) that was only a hundred yards over the border.  We left the golf course on Sunday night planning to spend one night in Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (about 7 miles from the border) then heading out Monday afternoon to Quartzsite for the rest of the week for the Author’s Fair.  Unfortunately…

From the Mojave we traveled east to cross the great Colorado River to Lake Havasu City, AZ.   Then it was back and forth across the Colorado at Parker, CA and finally south to get to Quartzsite, AZ.  We were headed to Quartzsite to get some additional solar panels that would enable us to boondock for longer periods of time without having to use the generator to charge the batteries.
The day we arrived to check out Solar Bill's, they were not busy and got us in and out in about 4 hours.  Amazing!
