Parker, Arizona

All week we have been watching the cactus at Desert Palms continue to bloom. When we left Mexico the cactus were already finished blooming so we were surprised when we saw the plants in Arizona - they are very striking and beautiful.


We followed the Baileys to Parker and after our long drive [65 minutes] we were ready for a rest and a cerveza. We are camped at a County RV Park [much like our Regional Parks] and have a front row seat on the Colorado River. There are numerous boats showing off in front of us. This setting is ideal for water lovers, like Maggie.


Just a short walk from our site there is a floating bar/restaurant that caters to the boating traffic, some of whom have had too much to drink. The noise was almost too much for a Sunday afternoon.



This afternoon we have a tee off time at one of the top 10 hidden jewels in the USA [according to Golf Magazine]. Hopefully we can give a good report after the round and not be too frustrated.
