Day 51, Monday, December 8, 2025 - La Paz County Park, Parker, AZ, Day 9 - 0 Miles, 3,449.7 Miles for the Trip

Another 51°F night and 60°F for my morning walk.

If you haven't realized it by now, this journal gets a bit boring since I'm in the same place for two months. I will haul out the camera and take a few photos.

While I read all morning, I did make a run to the post office to mail my granddaughter's birthday card & a couple of Christmas cards. Stopped at the bank for some cash and Safeway for a frozen pizza.

Back at the trailer I grabbed the camera and took a couple more hummingbird photos, and one of what my iBirds tells me is a Brewer's Blackbird, then a couple of photos of some of the boats traveling on the Colorado River. There is a seaplane that has landed (and taken off) twice since I've been here, but I haven't had the camera handy to get a photo. I also included a photo of the California side of the river.

 

It keeps getting warmer day by day. It his 80°F on my outdoor thermometer. Since it is in the ladder storage fence post on the sunny side of the trailer it may be boosted a couple of degrees, but it is a nice day. The seaplane took off again but I didn't get a good view of it because it was still too low and behind a bunch of RVs. One photo as it went by...

Dinner was half a Newman's Quattro Formaggi pizza.

Until Next Time -
