This was a day of breaking camp and preparing to leave tomorrow morning for Yuma. We have made plans to meet with Betty and Keith Tilley (Evan's mother and step dad) there and spend a couple of days exploring the Yuma area before moving on toward Phoenix by Christmas Eve. This afternoon, even though it was a little breezy, we took a five mile hike around town from camp and back. We also visited a large RV service dealer west of town and noticed some miniature Christmas trees that were decorated around the store. I made the comment that I had been looking for a small Christmas tree for my motor home and the lady picked one up, handed it to me and said, "Merry Christmas." So now I have a Christmas tree for the motor home.

We made the relatively short trip to Yuma today and found Betty and Keith and Betty's sister Paula. They have a very nice park model in a large park in Yuma. The scenery change was amazing just as we were entering Yuma as desert changed to huge fields of lettuce, cabbage, cauliflower and other vegetables. There are also many citrus fruit trees all around town loaded with oranges, tangerines, lemons and grapefruits. It rained on us a little off and on all the way down and then rained considerably more after our arrival. We spent a quiet afternoon with Keith, Betty and Paula and we enjoyed a very nice lunch and dinner in the evening with them. Our motor home is parked in a different park a short distance away in front of a park model that is currently vacant that belongs to Keith's sister.
