The plucked duck blew town at 3pm yesterday and landed in Yuma as a kind of scenic route detour. Heavy dune traffic on our side and the mother of all border patrol stops on the East bound side.
Passed another airstream 1/2 way between gila bend and the I8/I10 intersection. Was wondering if it was one of y'all heading to Q-town.

Jim left this am...he left the trailer, so I suspect he'll be back...if not, party at Jimini's place tonight!!! He found a really good site...won't be exactly a circle, more like an oval, but plenty of room...we'll go out this morning and start painting the way in in pink and cardboard...a small shower this morning, and intermittent sprinkles, but should be gone by tomorrow...come early to get your own place with a fire ring...hurry, tho', as they're gonna go fast...reservations ARE possible...it only costs one,...well...maybe two votes  ...I'm trying to develop a new voting machine, but the prototype from Florida is still counting the last election's ballots  ...we're waitin'...

It is pouring here in Yuma. The land-o-sand is drenched. No problemo, we are heading out to see the sights of this booming metropolis.

Spoke to the camp host this morning...I'll need to give him a list of license plate/state ralliers, and we should be good to go. Also ran into a fellow airstreamer(moho) from last year...he will also be joining us. It's raining, but that's just so ya'll's campsites will be clean for your arrival...anything else I can do to sway the votes...?
It's an easy drive into the area, if you follow the pink brick road.

any updates on the directions??
I am guessing that the directions are for going south, we are coming in from the south going north on 95 so the turn on 53rd will have us going west?

4CU-
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Sorry we missed this one.
I'm enjoying this week with the rest of the fire crews at San Clemente Island.
Watch those Desert puddles!

Enjoy a very pleasant, warm and relaxed Thanksgiving folks. May the sun glint off your Airstreams during the day, the firelight and stars at night, and the dogs choose not to roam. We'll be thinking of you.

Barry,
Enjoy being snug in the mansion by the fireplace and we'll sip a few in honor of you and your long suffering bride.

Put a little BBQ sauce on that "bird".
If you two get bored we'll be having a potluck on Sat. Bring your chairs and join in.

Qtown got a nice write up in the new Airstream life. Makes me that more disappointed that I won't make it. Hope every one stays happy

From Surprise you could be in the Q in less then 2 hours. You could always stop by for the day.

I put up a few directing signs today...they are aimed at southbound traffic...look for pink(if it doesn't blow away or melt tonight), follow the arrows, look for pink some more, then look for the silver things on wheels...Jimini's Squarestream is here, as are two MoHos, and a Bambi on a white van.
Roll call, so far, is Sam&Gail, Brian, and ours truly...5 folks and 3 real folks(two terriers and a dalmation)...good rain today, cleared off, now clouded again with sprinkles and distant lightning, but very little wind, and a bit warmer(59 F) tonight.
The terrain is much more animal pad friendly...still lots of rocks, but not much of the varnish...nice sunset.
You guys that can't make it...we'll miss you and tip more than a couple to you, we'll throw a log or two on the fire for you,...and then we'll REALLY talk about you like you weren't there...
Hope those not here have a Happy Turkey Day...we'll see you somewhere...
