Day 53, Wednesday, December 10, 2025 - La Paz County Park, Parker, AZ, Day 11 - 0 Miles, 3,449.7 Miles for the Trip

Another 48°F night, 54°F for my morning walk and a high for the day of 77°F.

After breakfast I sat outside & read which was pretty much all I did all day. I finished James D. Doss' Charlie Moon #15, A Dead Man's Tale. and started an unusual time travel novel since at least the start is written from the viewpoint of the past & the effect of the future setting up tourist centers. Robert Charles Wilson's Last Year.

The water was shut off in the campground to make a repair in a water line. It is back on, but it needs to run a bit before it looks clean.

There is one hummingbird that is king of the feeder. He chases away any other hummingbirds if he is at the feeder, and this afternoon he started sitting on the yoke of the support for the feeder. Ant other hummingbird comes near and he chases them away. There are many feeders set up around the park - I don't know why they don't share.

The King!

Watching the hummingbirds chase each other around was the highlight for the day.

Dinner was a Chicken Bubba Burger and Bush beans. I only have 4 chicken Bubba Burgers left and I don't expect to get more before well on the way home. None at Safeway or Walmart. I should check Food City before I give up on them, but the outlook isn't good.

Until Next Time -
