Beautiful moon, hot days..Happy Birthday Mason!

We're still here at Imperial Dam..and it's hot! The internet not too good in the afternoon so thought I'd load pictures in the morning and do the writing in the afternoon, well that didn't work.  Too involved in people watching and sitting in the shade (and enjoying happy hour with the hubby) to get it done.  So here I am trying to catch up..haha

Tuesday afternoon, it was hot so we took a little drive just around the area to spend a little time in air conditioning.  Down the road there is a day use area, but it's not part of the $40.00 we paid for camping.  Day use is $10.00. Ok if you want to spend the day but we didn't. 

There is another "campground" at the end of the road.  It's a big parking lot where you can spend the night or more for $15.00 a night. Why would you do that is beyond me, but you can see they seem to have no problem filling the lot. 

The lake is really low this year and seems to be just be shrinking more and more. Sad, because it's so beautiful.

When we finished looking at the lake there, we took one of the many dirt roads and ended up on top of a mesa.  We sat on the tailgate and drank a beer. Yes, I did too..an icy cold Corona Light. It was so good!

Our view from the top. 

Very nicely groomed dirt roads. 

Doug, did you name our road?!  

Sun going down..

Yep this is what I love! 

We were up taking many pictures of the eclipse but only a few here. Looking at blogs this am it's interesting how the pictures all turned out differently.  Still it was something to watch happen! Amazing...

We got ourselves up and going and headed for Yuma for a quick trip to stop at Frys and get a couple of things and ICE.  It's not lasting long in the cooler with this heat.  It was 86 one day and 82 the other..such intense sun! Stopped at Amerigas for a propane fill, much quicker at 1000 than at closing time.  $17.00 and we're heading back home.  Ken did ask if I wanted a date shake, but I said no. Had one last year and no desire this year. Too sweet for me. 

When we were pulling into camp we got a text from Patsy asking if we saw them wave as they went by the entrance to Imperial Dam on their way to Yuma.  Well, we were certainly close to seeing them as we had just pulled in to camp. They got an early start! Back home by 1100.  Cleaned a little and because the wind had stopped Ken was able to put out the awning. 

After lunch he asked if I wanted to go for a drive, as the trailer was heating up and outside there wasn't any shade yet.  You betcha let's go. We took the CA ride into Yuma through the little run down town of Winterhaven. 

Date farms

Cabbage Patch..where are the kids? 

Harvesting..

This area reminds us so much of our Mason Valley.  Yerington's claim to fame is the "Onion capital of the West".  Workers work all summer and I'm thinking then they head this way for a while.  Hard work for those people. 

Here you go Elva!

Lovely purple hue, and love that Airstream..

Happy Hour for just the two of us...

Beautiful moon last night..

Love the golden hue..

Dinner was a little late as we were enjoying being outside..
George, Ken finally got your salad and he really enjoyed it! 

It's been a great couple of days here at Imperial Dam.  So many RVs but ohh so quiet!  Today we're heading to the Arizona Marketplace, mainly because we've never been.  Tomorrow we're heading back to Q for a couple of days, thinking he wants to climb Q mountain because we haven't so we'll give that a shot. Once we've spent a few days we'll start the way home, so we can head out once again. Love it! 

Yesterday our Grandson Mason turned 13! Happy Birthday! I called him about 0600 and he was up because he wanted to watch the eclipse.  His dad was going to bar b q up a steak for him for dinner so he was happy.  

Mason and his dad, Eric..

Have a wonderful day!
