Didn't bother to post yesterday, as it was an absolute do-nothing day, if you don't count a load of laundry. Very different weather from what we have gotten used to - completely overcast and gray, no rain and we did get into the 60's.
We got some rain early this morning. I awoke around 3:30 and a few minutes later I heard the patter of rain drops on the behemouth. A simple shower, that lasted only about 15 minutes. But it sure seems to have "greened" things up. On the road again, headed for a tiny town called Gila Bend, at the junction of Hwys 85 and 8. They are probably best known for their solar power plants. We passed through here last year on our way to Tucson from Buckeye (part of Greater Phoenix), but today we will stay the night.

We're in a tiny little RV park behind the Shell station right at the junction of 8 and 85, but it's only $12 for the night (with water, power and a co-ed restroom, and using our Passport America membership), and neither highway is especially busy, so it's not at all noisy. It got good reviews, so we thought we'd check it out. Nothing fancy, but it's all we need for an overnight stay. It is a truck stop, so we could get an early awakening, but that's OK.
Time to go make muffins for breakfast tomorrow (we've got bananas that are almost liquid). Until next time dear followers, it's true that the cost of living hasn't affected its popularity.
