Thursday, February 4/2010



Busy day today!! Laundry needed to be done then took the bus into town to dump the tanks, fill with water, propane and diesel. We lasted exactly one month so are doing great as far as that goes. It is nice to know that we can last a month without having to move.
It is getting close to the weekend and also to Gold Rush Days in Wickenburg so the boondocking campsites around us are starting to fill up. We now have three "neighbors" close to us. Hogan keeps patrolling the perimeter and growling occasionally to keep the strangers away!!
We gathered some scraps of wood from around the campsite and once again had a nice fire tonight. The weather was even nicer tonight. There was absolutely no wind and despite the fact that we have neighbors, there was very little noise. There are absolutely NO MOSQUITOS here. Except for a few wasps that seem to appear in the daytime, there are very few insects of any kind so, that is awesome. It is still too cold out for the spiders and snakes!!! Thank You God!!
The coyotes and the owls serenaded us tonight and that was great. The sky was clear and the stars were shining like crazy. It is strange to see the Big Dipper here when one tends to think that the only place it can be seen is from back home. Makes you realize just how vast the skies really are. Incredible!!!
