Stealthing in Yuma

Got word from Amazon that my package is coming in today, so I packed up and left Kool Corner. On the way out I detoured through Mittry Lake to see how that’s set up and to find the dumpster[s]. The allure of camping near water is largely lost on me, but I see why others

the limits of one’s vision / relo plans

{wrote this yesterday and forgot to press PUBLISH} Finally found some bandwidth to upload an old vid from 2020. On a small highway traversing BLM land in the Blue Mountain area of OR. This could have ended badly: The calf at 1:28 could have gone either way; they are especially squirrelly so don’t trust them

on the turning away (pic heavy)

I mentioned before that I went beyond the main Kool Corner camping area and turned back because one of the tracks was washed out. Muffin and I walked up there to get a second opinion. It turned out to have been a good call. This low spot going around the right hander turned into deep

Up and down Arizona 95. Not sure why Google thinks I was in Tucson.

logistics: kofa to yuma

I plan on staying in the greater Yuma area for 28 days, weather willing.

I got everything ready to start the move tomorrow morning. I’ll do laundry, get another $9 shower, and pick up some torx

covid stimulus II / early relo?

Looks like I’m going to be in the large group of folks that won’t get the stimulus directly. For those of that don’t get it by Jan 15, apparently: If your stimulus payment does not come by Jan. 15, 2021, the only way you can claim it is to file a tax return for the

morning in Quartzsite / relo to Plomosa

I needed to make a run into Quartzsite this morning, and I wanted to relocate as my mobile data was terrible. Dear Planet Fitness I had to make a run to the USPS to send a certified letter to PF cancelling my subscription.  You can do it in person at your “home” gym or send
