Yuma we have arrived! (EDIT - Pictures added)

We reached our 1st winter destination, Yuma, AZ., yesterday early afternoon. We had decided to park at Fortuna de Oro RV Park since it came recommended by our friends Terry & Dale.

It's actually not a bad park, just very, very big and kinda expensive at $25.00 per night + tax, no discounts. The weekly rate is still $25.00 p.n. so no break there!

Terry and Dale came over yesterday afternoon for a visit. They left this morning for Quartzsite, AZ., which means boondocking! We haven't decided if we want to do that or not.

Today we drove over to Jim and JoEllen Gass's lot and had a nice visit with them. Nick and Terry Russell are parked there and dropped in also. Jim's lot is very nice and is designed to park two RV's on. Right now he has three parked there, without any problem. Still lots of room left.

We arranged to meet Smokey and Pam for lunch and did so at a Mexican restaurant. Guess we ended up having a two hour lunch or longer. It was really nice seeing friends again!

At this point we are not sure how long we are going to stay in Yuma. Smokey and Pam asked us to go to Quartzsite with them next Sunday afternoon and then on to Las Vegas for a few days. With the weather the way it is - cold - we just aren't sure that we want to move! I really want to go to Las Vegas, but was hoping for weather that was a little warmer. We will decide within the next day or so. If we opt to stay here, we will probably move to a private lot where the rent is a whole lot less.

I took some pictures on the drive from Benson to Yuma, but the camera is in the truck and I don't feel like going out in the cold to get it. I'll post them here later so check back......

Here are a couple of pictures on the drive to Yuma...
