Yesterday was the last hurrah at the park - the last of the 'get-togethers'. It was well attended and the weather was awesome.

(l to r) Barb, Deb, Dianne and myself. 

The margarita girls - Suzanne and Bonnie.

There was all kinds of food and free hot dogs.

Even the margaritas were free - while they last it was said - but they seemed to last for a long time.

We played water washers using pool noodles and beach balls. That was quite fun.

Our time is winding down now, counting the weeks. Our plan is to leave around the 7th of April, landing us home around the 10th.  Hopefully the snow will be gone when we get there - lol!  








Michel took a walk up the canyon this past week. The cactus are in bloom.










And he found himself a fixer upper car... What do you think of this one?

We made a quick trip to San Felipe, Mexico (in the Baja) on Monday with friends Rich and Tina. 

The weather was wonderful with sunshine and ocean breezes. 










We spent two nights, the second night in a hotel on the beach. 

San Felipe is very quiet these past years, most of the RV Parks no longer open. But the people who still take their rigs down wouldn't go anywhere else!

We took a drive to Puertecitos which is about 85 km (50 miles) south of San Felipe. This section of road is bad - rough, broken, narrow and slow travelling.
Pictured above is the bay at Puertecitos.

We had thought of going all the way to Ganzaga Bay, which is another 85 km south, but decided against it as that would only add another few hours to our trip back home (Palm Springs) the next morning. The paved road south of Puertecitos is wonderful compared the miles and miles of dirt road we travelled on last time.

Beautiful sunrise (5:59 AM) on the morning we left.
We don't see too many of these - not because we don't have beautiful sunrises (and sunsets) here in California, but because we are not usually up at that time!
We all had a good time and are happy that we took the time, made the plan and actually drove to San Felipe to check it out after talking about it for a few years.
