Whenever my current (Surprise!) employment allows. Suffice it to say that a Road Trip is planned for “sometime” in the next few months. (Not that sleeping in a Mercedes seat is uncomfortable, it’s just that it isn’t FLAT…and ‘laying’ on your side or back is not very easy at just that time when your Sit Upon desires not to be LAID upon either…) But I digress… It goes to the shop next week for a tune up / prep cycle, then I finish the outfitting for living on the road in much more comfort than ever before. Ordered a 24 inch x 72 inch camping cot that just happens to fit Just Fine inside a Mercedes 300TE Wagon with the seats folded down. I’m currently setting up one of my Wagons as a Mini-RV. So I was pretty well set that Quartzsite is on my Must Camp list on the next run. and figured out where some of the camping is located (all around the little town of Quartzsite that’s really a giant gas station and RV supply depot…) Last trip, I even scouted out the place on my way to Florida (but being on a fast hustle to get to Jan 6th events, had no time to camp). They have a HUGE meet-greet-swap-meet for RV stuff and folks from all over the country migrate down there for winter (because 75 F in the desert beats the shit out of MINUS 30 F in 20 feet of snow…). Simply because it is free in many places. I’d intended to camp there next trip coast to coast (that I’m hoping will be soon). Known as a place with a decently low price of gasoline, and a LOT of free government camping land. It’s a flat largely empty bit of desert near the California Border on the way to Phoenix. I’ve driven past Quartzite a few dozen times.
