Heading East

Yuma was getting hot...mid to high 90's (Denver - your 60's and 70's were looking good to us!). So we decided to begin our trek east to become Texans. First stop, Deming, NM. We had stopped at a remote park on our journey south and west in early February, but this time through, we decided to stay at an Escapee's park that was in town. This was an old park on the east side of town.

The circus was in town, and pitched their giant tent adjacent to the park. We didn't go, as my clowning around was enough for Donna. Instead, the park had signs out for a "social hour" at 4:00pm, so we decided to go and meet some people. I brought an adult beverage with me, since it was "social hour". Turns out I had the only adult beverage...everyone else was drinking coffee or water. Geez...was my face red! It was a round table, with everyone introducing themselves and telling a brief story about themselves. When I proudly said we had been full timing for 1-1/2 months, that brought a chuckle to the crowd. We did meet some interesting people.

We spent 2 days here recuperating from the long drive from Yuma, then hit the road again.
