THE TRIP WEST

Rest stop with wind generators
Getting through Tennessee


No Willy Nelson sightings

Pauls says he's on vacation after crossing the Mississippi


3117.1 miles to Yuma, then another 100 to Brenda......LOOOONG drive.

QUARTZSITE SIGHTS

Not a good idea to drive down a flooded wash


He tried to go around the sign.

Wind devastation at the vendors tents



A beautiful face

and a cutie patootie

FUN ON THE AIRSTRIP

Just needs a little tinkering
Mary's favorite




Paul finds a fixer upper.



Hey! A helicopter at a great price!




Paul getting the plane motor started.






Lookin good

SOUTHWEST 2010 THE BEGINNING: IT'S REALLY WET HERE!

Parked on the airstrip at Quartzsite. Pouring down rain kept us inside.
Can we pull out without sinking?

Tried to take the dogs out to potty, and lost my shoe in the mud.
Hopefully the desert will bloom like crazy after this!
