We are at the Colorado River Oasis in Ehrenberg, Arizona, right over the California Arizona border. When we first drove up, it looked a little desserted, but turned out to be rather nice.
We took Hattie for a swim at the river after breakfast and after I did my AM Facebooking. I talked with Monica. She checked our mail and is FedExing some stuff.
We planned on heading to Lake Havasu City, 90+ miles away but due to a late start, we decided to do something more local, so I checked for POIs on the Tom Tom. Well, the closed Point of Interest to Ehrenberg, Arizona was the Scandinavian Cultural Center in Winnipeg, Manitoba. What? Well, so much for Tom Tom. We asked at the front office and they directed us to a town called Quartzsite that has lots of street vendors. It actually a flea market. The town is bustling from October to April, then it dies – it’s to HOT. As it was, it was very nice and warm. I bought a out door 9’ x 9’ mat for the RV, some earring backs, and Carl bought some snacks and a T Shirt. The man at the office also told us of a produce market in the area. The directions were: it’s off of 18th avenue next to a pink house. We drove and drove and just when we were about to give up, viola! There it was. Right next to the pink house. It was a small family run farm. We bought some fruit and vegetables and the gal gave us a nice canvas bag ‘cause we drove so far to find them. Nice, huh. We stopped at Albertson’s in Blythe for a few items then headed back to the park.
We again took Hattie to the river for her swim. She’s relentless! I Facebooked. I’m relentless.
Carl fixed bbq’d pork roast. Delicious. Heidi called. It was so good to hear her voice. I worked on Christy’s wedding favor, a wrapper for See’s Candy sucker. It’s very cute.
