LIFE IN COLOR; Quartzsite-AZ

Road work was going on, and stirring up dust, between 2 AM and 5 AM; Holland slipped under the bed coverings sometime around 3 AM … and I was up somewhere in the neighborhood of 4 AM, because I was choking on the dust creeping into Independence (the road work was mere feet from entrance into The Pit Stop, and the seepage was so strong, I could literally taste the dust). RV's, even one as nice as ours, are not air-tight: there are opportunities (like around the slide outs, even though they have a protective gap covering), that allow unwanted exterior dusts and pollens into the interior.

I drank a mug of coffee, munched on a few pieces of fried bacon (precooked, frozen, and reheated in the microwave), flicked the fireplace on (45-degrees this morning 😑), surfed the internet, enjoyed a lovely sunrise 😊 … and finished up another original kitchen towel set design, before my husband roused himself to show his handsome face 😉

Today's lovely sunrise; front end of Independence~Quartzsite-AZ 7.15 AM

MOD Ribbed Thong Half Socks was featured on a Canadian Blog Hop

MOD 'Summer Rhapsody' Knit Kitchen Towel Set; finished this morning.

I like to be surrounded by bright colors - the sunrise was very colorful; the pictures really do not do justice to the unfolding beauty.

I like to dress colorfully.

I think, dream, and design my original works, in color.

Life is wonderful when color is part of it 👍

Holland cooked Supper, tonight - I like his layered, steamed, tasty concoctions 😊

Tonight's Supper; ham (left over from the meal I cooked last night), brussels sprouts, green beans, carrots, spuds, onions, mushrooms, spices, & orange segments.

I placed eggs in also, to 'hard steam' ;-)

The orange flavoring was different, but really good, too.

After supper, Holland tinkered around with a little drone … and I fiddled with my new camera, familiarizing myself with more of the features.

We're going to have fun with both of our informative toys, tomorrow, in the open desert where the drone will have lots of wide-open spaces to spread it's wings and fly; and I can mess around with the zooming and recording features of my camera 👌

We're gonna try this little colorful thing out, tomorrow afternoon.

I like the metallic blue color.

Tonight's sunset was a pretty tangerine orange.

AZ sunrises and sunsets are very colorful - I like that.

Life is wonderful when color is part of it 😁

WILD LIFE IDEALS

Earlier this week, Holland was sick - I'd never seen him that sick and it concerned me. But Elohim was merciful, he rebounded: and was well enough to administer aid to me when it was my turn to be sick yesterday :-(

I spent all day in bed yesterday and Holland checked on me, making sure I got enough liquids … the cocoa he made and brought to me last night around normal bedtime soothed me enough to put me straight out through the night: I woke up snuggled into a comforting hug (don't know when he slipped into bed).

He's the best husband :-)

I woke up soaking wet, so I knew my fever had broken … and all my loving husband said was, "it's alright Baby … it's okay."

The entire day flowed smoothly :-)

The sunrise was beautiful.

The sun-kissed mountains started the day off, golden.

Bleu was on his best behavior.

My granddaughter posted good news.

And Holland suggested we "get out of the house for a bit before the forecasted rain arrives and we all go stir-crazy" (Bleu was a little brat yesterday and was in the dog-house with both of us, most of the day).

We were out-of-house about half an hour.

Sun is up ;-)

My eldest granddaughter had exciting news to share :-)

We are back among the living …

Holland took good care of me yesterday, & thru the night.

Quartzsite seen from the east side of town; other than actual business buildings which have empty shelves until December … Quartzsite-AZ is basically RVr's on BLM land & 55+ mobile home parks. That's it. Big stores, cinemas, ect. are either in Parker to the north - or Yuma to the south.

Another broken heart rock; in wash off Kuehn Street. Quartzsite-AZ

Funky Bus -  I'm don't know if the owner didn't have enough paint to finish … or if this bus is a business advertisement.

Bleu, not happy the rain forced him back home: "Rain, rain, go away - furboy Bleu want to stay and play".

Back home again, Holland went back to research, Bleu had been appeased … and I started nourishing my body, that had been on an unwelcome 24-hr. fast ;-)

Back home, I was hungry for canned clams … and they settled well on my stomach; so did the tea ;-)

Back home, Holland started surfing the internet for ways to ease our wild living venture ;-)

Last week I said to Holland, "You overthink too much; relax once in a while." But, now I am understanding that he's not an overthinker … he's an achiever; and he is more relaxed by making sure all bases are covered while we are building our ideal, wild, life ;-)
