Rin Tin Odie
We're back in Quartzsite now. Our drive from Havasu yesterday shows you why this desert is green!
But, this morning is gorgeous, and Odie was very insistent on going for our little hike here. Most places we just take him for a 15 minute walk on his leash, but, here in Quartzsite he gets to run free in the desert and we have a hill to climb. He must know where we are because usually he's quite agreeable about waiting for us in the morning. We have our coffee, read our email, maybe even have breakfast, while he just sits there and patiently waits for his turn to be taken for a walk. Not this morning, he's pawing at our legs, running back and forth and throwing his toys at us.
"Take me for a walk!"
"I wanna go hike to the top of the hill!"
....
"Now!"
Ok, All right. Rin Tin Odie.
Of course, we love the hike too. We are always rewarded with beautiful views at the top.
My task for today is to start spring cleaning. Over a year of living full-time in this motorhome and the cupboards are looking more like trash bins! We've learned a lot about what needs to be where - it's time to empty it all out and rearrange! Let's take advantage of the sunshine while we can.
