It’s RAINING It’s POURING

We are at the A-frame rally in Deadhorse State Park near Cottonwood AZ.  The event has been great but quite damp.  Last night my slide show went on but because of the rain we only had 5 people left.  Tonight we have rain again but it’s cold going down to 39.

The rally crowd had some newbies it is so cool to be able to show and share with people just starting out.  I was impressed with a lady who this was her first trip with her trailer and she came from Las Vegas, the navigation took her the mountain route over Jerome in the dark.  Very steep winding road in the dark, she is now a pro.

The tour of homes was enjoyable, there was a nice mix of older A-frames alongside some brand new trailers.  Yesterday we had a swap meet and were able to get rid of stuff we have not used, but still carried around.  Tomorrow is President’s day and most people will be heading home.  We will be heading home Tuesday.

WINTER!

Burrrrrrrr!!!  Yes, I am a wimp. I have adapted to SoCal temps so anything below 60 is chilly, anything below 50 is cold anything below 48 is what wasI thinking.  I was think I want to hang in Cottonwood with other Aframers.  Got in last night Roy brought the early arrivals KFC chicken and we had an impromptu potluck.  It has been a blast. Today I am giving a seminar on geocaching.   

Happy Valentine’s Day

25 years ago today, I got roses from my soul mate.  I did not know he was until about a year later.  He was so funny he didn’t realize the day he sent me roses was Feb 14.

I was at work and saw the flower delivery guy come in and thought wow that’s nice someone is loved.  Then they said it was for me, I thought great the jerk I broke up with is trying to get me back.  I  had met a cool guy and did not want the other one.  Well Roy sent me roses, that was then when I fell.  

The next year Feb 14 rolled around and I got nothing.  I said nothing and was kinda grumpy all day.  He asks what’s up I said it’s Valentine’s Day last year you sent me roses.  His response was I did it just because, not because of the day.  That made those rises more special.

Fast forward to today, we are camping and he got me a t-shirt that says I love you to the moon and back.  I love him sooooooooo much

Monday Monday

We were going to head out to the event in Mexico this morning. Soometimes you just have to take a break.  I guess I’m not as hardcore as I thought anymore, LOL. This was the 5th year for the actual Yuma mega.

The event yesterday was cold and windy so we did cut out early.  We got there early to scoop up our spot.  Someone had pulled a picnic table over which was nice.  Once we dropped the stuff I left Roy to go shopping Geoswag was there, I told myself I was getting no new coins, (well I bet you would never guess)  I only bought a few coins had to get the yearly bench mark coin and a few others.  I did do a photo bomb on Signal, so here it is.


Through out the day, Tundra Tim, Klondike Kate, Boxerboy, Bugzapper, Shiprex, 2Cottens, Fulltime Rvers, Sweetmarie, Roxiemama (who’s been renamed to Foxiemama because I have blonde roots), Me and Marley, Be o be, Travelling Holts.  If I forgot anyone my bad.

Last night we did the Golden Corral with Rex, Kevin, and Randy, stayed so long another group of cachers came rolling in and joined us.  

I will post

Full Weekend

CVGC Coachella Valley  Geocachers took Yuma by storm this weekend.  I love seeing non-morning people become morning people.  Roy (nevadanick) Kim (orange jeep).  Speaking of Kim I found my long lost twin, at least when it comes to blonde moments.  She knows.  Yesterday there was the discover Yuma series and we saw a true castle will post pics on return.

Lesson learned if you use new technology at an event try it first, car GPS.  Google took us through a trailer park thought it was the best way.  I then found out it was a setting.

Last night we had an event at the Mine Shaft.  Kevin (boxerboy) would not ride the bull so we left.  Ok we were leaving anyways.  Today is the mega I hope the weather holds.

I Would have Forgot my Hubby

if he wasn’t the one driving!  It’s ok, when you travel you should support the local Wally world.😄  My story.  We are in Yuma for the mega geocaching event, then on to Dead Horse state park for an a-liner gathering.  I sat outside the camper this morning thinking about writing this and I hear an excited female voice say “Look, honey it’s another a-frame.”  So we of course strike up a conversation, come to find out they are also geocachers very small world.  I invited them to come to the a-frame gettogether but they can’t. I tried!

I ussually have a check list and am organized well not this trip.  I had piles set out to pack and a routine something did not click.  I left my travel coffee mug, and some how I think my deorderant didn’t make the trip (don’t tell Roy I used his), I think I also did not bring the password cheat sheet.  There is a trip to Wally in the near future.
