It was mid morning by the time we were ready to leave our
spot at Oxbow and head back to Blythe...Serena took us a different route back,
going across the bridge, through Cibola and then turning north at that
point. Here we are crossing another
bridge...so we basically crossed into Arizona when we left Oxbow and then back
into California...
We passed a palm plantation...
We stopped at Miller Park in Blythe to fill our fresh water
tanks and then found the sani-dump, a few blocks away. It's a brand new sani-dump but there is no fresh water...very goofy setup. After that was all taken care of, we headed
north a short distance to the Midland LTVA (long term visitors area)...
Upon entering the area, we pulled over and walked over to
the camp host site, a very friendly couple from Yakima, Washington. We purchased a 14 day pass ($40) and then set
off to find our spot in the desert. It
didn’t take long and after positioning the rig east-west so that the solar
panels could be tilted south for full sun exposure, we unhitched.
After getting all unpacked, it was time to relax.
This is looking southwest from our spot...
The area is not very busy...I'd say about twenty or so rigs spread out. The pictures don't really do justice...it's really quite beautiful...in it's own way, of course.
