Tuesday, January 15 , 2019 - La Posa West, Quartzsite, AZ, Day 39 - 0 Miles, 8,082.2 Miles for the Trip
A very wet night & day. Over 1" of rain. While there is a flood watch on for the area, the washes in the campground are mostly dry, with puddles all over. The sand & gravel surface can get you - step in the wrong place and you sink in one to two inches into the mud. Hard to tell by looking which is solid gravel and which is a mud pot. I didn't go for my walk this morning, the fisrt time since getting to Quartzsite. I don't mind walking in snow, but don't like walking in the rain.
Not much time outside, although a group of us got together and chatted during one of the brief "dry" spells. Very little solar charging during the day - I went from -24 amp hours this morning to -21 at 3:00. At least I got lots of reading in!
Dinner will be a baked chicken quarter (maybe grilled if the rain lets up) and steamed vegetables.
Until Tomorrow -
