There were fantastic views all around us as we came out on the topmost hills. The bottom picture was of the green lettuce fields behind us where we started, the middle picture is looking at Yuma with the sand dunes in the distance and the top one is looking at the greenery at the Yuma Proving Grounds Army base & Senator's Wash in the distance, which is a long term camping area. It was an awesome day to be outside enjoying the wonderful weather.

Tomorrow, Monday, we are packing up and leaving Lake Mittry to go back to our friend's, the Thadens, who live in the Foothills. We'll stay with them for a week before going up to Quartzsite for the annual bus rally and Boomer rally. I'll try to take some pictures while there. Since this is a yearly thing for us, we usually don't take pictures of the same old things all the time. But, some of you have never seen this phenomenon that happens at this particular time of the year, so I'll try and capture in pictures what it is all about.

I miss you guys terribly. Thanks for the pictures and give Kathy and Gene a big hug for us. In a perfect world we would be out west in an RV along with all of our boomer friends "one day". We are making the most out of the paradise we live in. We found a great deal here in the keys. Water and elec. for $10 a day, cheaper for longer stays. yippee
Hugs all around, Diana and George

Just caught up on your posts and enjoyed seeing all the Yuma area. Haven't been on the Colorado Riverboat ride either. Let's go sometime.
