Well Louise and I pulled out of Yuma last Saturday and headed north to the desert around Quartzsite. We were invited to celibrate the New Year coming with a group of Holiday Rambler Full-timers who were going to have a mini-rally in the desert.
About 3 weeks ago we met George and Lou Small while we were in Ehrenberg. They also have a Holiday Rambler "Endeavor" (the same coach as we have) and they belong to a group of other Holiday Rambler owners. They are all full-timers and members of the Full-Timers Chapter 400 Club. You must be full time motorhomers to belong and you must own a Holiday Rambler...well we fit the requirements so they ask us to join them for the desert party. As we pulled off the highway at the location of the flag and arrow directing us out into the desert, we found a circle of Holiday Ramblers waiting for us. We have really been having a great time meeting, eating, drinking, and shopping with everyone of them. We start the day with breakfast around the fire pit and we end the day with a dinner gathering.
It has been a lot of fun with and without all the company. Louise and I have taken walks out into the desert, shopped ourselves blue in the tent city of Quartzsite, and just in general have had a good time. I just want to say; May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal your debts. May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet for $100 bills. May love stick to your face like Vaseline and may laughter assault your lips! May your clothes smell of success and may happiness slap you across the face,and may your tears be that of joy. May the problems you had, forget your home address! In simple words .......May 2008 be the best year of your life.
