Why I Love the Yuma Area

Yuma has awesome sunsets.


While sitting at a red light to your left is a military vehicle, 


and to your right is a truck laden with produce right from the field.


We've done a couple of things to the rv while here,  first we changed our heater from a Wave 8 to a ProCom.  The reason is the controls and lighting buttons on the Wave 8 are at the bottom, as seen in this picture from the internet.

Wave 8

On the ProCom the controls are on the top, making it much easier to light.  Both heaters are propane, both are ventless and both heat up to 300 square feet but now, for me, having the knobs on the top is much better.

ProCom has a blue flame.  

The other item we crossed off our list was an electric awning.  Installed by Shade Pro, the same company that did our window awnings last year.  Haven't used it yet because it's been windy but happy to have it.


As you can see in the picture above we are parked out on the desert and you can see some rv's behind us.  Those are some of the Escapee Boondockers that are here as well.  We have gathered for our annual Christmas get together and potluck.  All of the folks that we met and spent time with this summer in Washington are here and it's nice to visit with friends, old and new.  Sadly Goldie, the owner of the property in Long Beach Washington where we spent the month of August, isn't here because of health issues, so that means Freda isn't here either, we miss them both.  There are about a dozen rv's here which makes for a nice gathering.  

Be back soon.
