Oh, not to mention, loose belt on Generac causing low AC voltage, thereby batteries not charging correctly and AC items not working.

Quartzsite or Just where are we

Well, yes we did arrived at the Alfa Roadrunner spot.
Our Alfa Logo sign, made with quartz rock is still here and can be seen with Google Satellite, you can make out the image a little.


Since we arrived, worked on 1 generator - loose belt, 1 propane furnace bad board - cold solder joint. And I expect a few more before the week is out.

We took a drive to Tyson Wells, to check out some of the tents, grabbed a coffee at a new shop we found, and we filled our 2, 5 gallon water jugs. 

1 propane fire and tonight 1 real fire. 

When we arrived, there was 3 Rvs. By the end of the day, we had tripled in size to 9. Today, an additional 6 units came in. 5 Alfas and 1 5th wheel of some other brand. And this is not even the week of the rally. 




We started out with a beautiful sunrise this morning, then we capture some unique finds on our walk-a-bout in Tyson Wells:



Our next photo took place in the evening:




This was all in 1 day and a half since we arrived.

Oops, forgot to mention the walks in the desert.

Quartzsite - Here we Come

Monday, it is off to "Q" for a Alfa Roadrunner rally, with other Non-Roadrunner Alfa's and friends with other brand units.

However, in the meantime, what have we been doing. Good question, as we have been busy, time has been flying by, just can't seem to remember with what.

So, what has been happening? Well I have completed 2 additional solar/Magnum installation. Place an additional order for some Lithium batteries for 2 friends. Order a few spare items. Took the truck back to the shop. Picked it up, took it back even before we left the lot. Talk about Quality control - NOT.

Anyway, thanks to Jerry and Janis for the use of the Mouse/Clown Car.

Always a big thanks to RĂ¼diger and Beate Gefeke for all the hard work they have done here on the lot.

Next inline is prepping for "Q" and our fun time in the desert.

And I still have 2 small jobs lined up.

Oh, Deb and Curt came down from Whitman, Az., to check out Yuma and see what it is all about.

Plus, I have a chance to talk to Mike, at Gene's Rv, in Mesa, Az. Always good to talk to him and see how everything is going. He never ceases to amaze me, in his help-fullness, and good nature attitude. If you Ever need Rv work, I will always recommend Gene's Rv.
