I have several unrelated topics & photos to share, so this is a mishmash! 🧐
Recently, I’d been craving pizza & then a friend on FB mentioned pizza! 🥴 Now, I was on a mission to get PIZZA! It took over 24 hours to get it, but mission accomplished! 😁 NO pizza is worth a 2.5+ hour wait for take-out, so I had to give it up on Day #1. 🥺 The next day, I called in my order at 2:15 & it was ready at 3pm. There was NO place to park, except the ice cream shop next door & they’re very STRICT about parking. Sooooo…I parked with the buggies, got myself a cup of chocolate chip ice cream & a Pup Cup for Maddie. Then I ran in to get my Hawaiian pizza & a root beer. I made a Brown Cow root beer float & voilà! Dinner was served! (I found the pizza Pringles at Dollar General, in case I’m ever craving pizza again… 😆)This was a DELICIOUS grilled cheese sandwich from a food truck. Mean Maggi’s is from Montana & they offer a limited menu of gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. They come all the way to Quartzsite every January for a few weeks because they do such a fabulous business here! This was a BAS/bacon, apple & Swiss cheese on thick wheat toast. It was garnished with a jalapeño pepper. A mini Milky Way bar was a sweet treat surprise. They’re only here for another few days, so I’m hoping to go back soon for their TBA/turkey, bacon & avocado! 😊 I love this bar’s concept of Adult Day Care! 😎It’s a good thing these tiny lizards are so fast because they’re unbelievably well camouflaged! I’m always afraid of stepping on one, so I’m very careful to look for them now. I’ve named them all Waldo, as in Where’s Waldo? 😁The hummingbirds are now here from dawn until almost dark! I’m probably going to start using the second feeder to avoid territorial disputes. I’d love it if they decide to nest here!Maddie is doing great❣ I’m going to petition the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show to add Canine Entanglement to their events! Maddie would definitely win Best in Show! She has an extraordinary talent for tripping up humans with her cable & also getting herself caught up on EVERYTHING. 🙄 I turned away from her for about 3 minutes & when I looked back, this was how I found her! She was so tightly tangled up with the solar light pole that I had to remove her harness to release her! 🤷♀️ Note the ROCKY ground. I expected the desert to be sandy. Here, it’s all rocks. It makes it extremely difficult to pound in tent stakes & it’s a rough surface to walk on.The top photo is just as the sun is setting. For just a few minutes almost every night, the mountain tops have a gorgeous, coppery colored glow. The bottom photo is our campsite in the dark. We’ve had several close calls recently with drivers almost hitting the tent & car in the dark! 😠 I’ve had the solar lights with me, so I made a line of nightlights to HOPEFULLY keep us safe! 😬I forgot to post these photos of the last full moon in January. It was a beautiful, clear night with just enough clouds to create an eerie appearance. The sky is usually either cloudless & bright blue or filled with an interesting assortment of clouds. ☁️ These were two of our neighbors tents that succumbed to the wind. The top one was just being used for storage, but the bottom one was their living space. As far as I know, nobody was hurt in this storm, but there was significant damage all over the area. 🥺😉The weather conditions here are dusty, very dusty or DUSTY.
I hope everyone is doing well & surviving this crazy winter weather, wherever you live.
On May 2, 2021, I departed from Massachusetts in my 2017 Ford Edge (Breezy Blue) with my 13.5 year young pup, Maddie, to fulfill a lifelong dream of a road trip across America. Our departure was delayed by a month, but we're making up for lost time now! My goal is to be out and about for a year.

Have you moved to your tent village in Quartzsite permanently? 🙃
I’m currently reviewing my posts, comments & replies & I missed this one. 🤷♀️
Despite spending 101 days in a tent or the car in Quartzsite, we finally escaped! I wonder how long you need to stay somewhere before you can claim legal residency? 🤔
Where's Wendy? Livin' in the Edge!
