At The Fairgrounds For the Western Gypsy Journal Gathering

Waiting in line with the other 50-60 rigs waiting to park at the Yuma Fair Grounds --



There were puddles and then it rained some more --



After we finally were parked, we headed for the fair's theatre building to get registered --




We got a good start this morning driving from Casa Grande to Yuma. It's about a 170 mile drive and took us about about three hours. One thing we noticed was how green the desert was -- even more so than the last time we had taken a long drive. We had rain showers all along the way. It says on the "Desert Wildflower Reports" on the internet, that the rains of last month did a great deal to start things growing, but another shower would still be needed "if there is to be a spectacular bloom this spring." Well, today they got those showers -- and then some!



This is part of the usual "preparing to leave" routine --





Emptying the black and then the gray tanks, flushing them out, then waiting to make sure everything is drained before you can pack all the hoses away...
