Yuma, AZ and to Emerald Cove RV Resort in Earp, CA

We got away from Carlsbad and drove to ElPaso, TX. We arrived after 7 pm and headed for an RV park to stay for a few days. Upon arrival we found the park full and it was too late to look for another. So on to the local WalMart for the night. We got up the next morning, rather than find another RV park we headed to Yuma. We were intending to go across the border (walking of course) into Mexico as we were so close. But that was too much of a hassle so on we went. Arrived in Tucson, AZ around supper time & we shut it down for the night. Left early the next morning and continued the drive to Yuma, AZ. We stopped at an RV Park in Welton where we had stayed before. We visited with some old acquaintances we had not seen since last year. We then pulled out & headed for Suni Sands RV Park. After setting up we went and saw friends who now live in Yuma. We stayed there for 3 nights doing some running around and a trip across the border into Algadones, MX for a few items. the following morning we arrived at our intended destination til Nov. 14th. Emerald Cove RV Resort is one of seven resorts in the CRA (Colorado River Adventures) system. We like it because the weather is mild, temperatures are warm and we have made many a good friend here. One of these friends has a pontoon boat & we are able to cruise up and down the Colorado River on a regular basis with them. For instance after our arrival, Doris & Marcel arrived with whom we had stayed with in Minnesota. After getting them set up we went & got the pontoon from storage, unwrapped it, cleaned it and started the motor. We then put it in the river and we went cruising up the Colorado River to the Roadrunner Cafe as it was a wonderful warm day. Temperature here since our arrival has been in the high 80's and low 90's. After arriving back to Emerald Cove we found that Dave & Donna pulled in between us about a half hour after leaving the dock.
