Southern Arizona, California & Mexico

Oct 23 - Nov 3.... Yuma, AZ / Winterhaven, CA -- The RV Park (Pilot Knob) we are staying at is actually in Winterhaven, CA. We are located 8 miles west of Yuma. The park is nice however, we are a bit too close to the freeway and train track! We have found that the Marines do alot of training in this area. We have never seen or heard so many helicopters in our life. The even fly at night without lights. The self proclaimed 'Center of the World' is across the freeway from us - there's not much there but a pyramid but we can say we were there. The weather has been great and we have made it around most of Yuma. We have made 3 trips to Los Algadones, Mexico which is about 3-4 miles from the RV Park. All 3 trips were to see the Dentist - what fun! (the price is right but the pain is not)!!! This Mexican town caters to the American tourist. There must be hundreds of dentists - there are several in each block. They also have a surplus of Optometrists, pharmacies and liquor stores. Of course we did have to by some Tequila for our Margaritas! We have been walking, biking and swimming and hope to hike to the top of Pilot Knob Mountain someday before we leave next week. We have also been motor home shopping - more to come on that news front next week!
