    PIRATE CAMP '24-25....................Desert SouthWest

    I'm good on food, though it's nice that they have that available for those that need it. I'll check it out next time I'm in town. :)

    Wasn't aware there was a thrift store there. Will check it out.

    True! Will have to start looking around.

    It's really nothing major, just a small stand to put the 'cabinet' next to my driver seat up enough to install the diesel heater under it.

    I don't mind running into Blythe. Just didn't want to if I could get what I needed here.

    Looks like I'll be heading to the Pavilion tomorrow.

    You should be able to use the laptop with it plugged in, regardless of battery condition. The battery on my laptop gave up the ghost months ago, will not charge no matter what and I'm only able to use it when it's plugged into the inverter. That and the other issues it has are why I really...

    Not that I haven't already done multiple times. The laptop is just old and getting worn out. I mean it was used when I bought it and I have had it for years.

    Ouch! I mean, I also need a new laptop, but at least mine still works. Several keys on the keyboard refuse to work, despite having put two new keyboards in. Regular right click refuses to work, so had to remap it to a different mouse button. Also the video card sometimes freaks out and I...

    Also, Maki's vehicle and trailer are matching colors, making it rather simple to spot where she is. ;)

    Well, if really needed there are two small grocery stores in Q. They may be a bit more expensive but it might be better than waiting an hour on the way to Parker. Also better than driving all the way to Havasu or Yuma. Also if it isn't perishable you can always order and have it shipped...

    All good, do what you do. :) I'll still be here.

    No worries, do what you need to do. I'll be hanging out here for the foreseeable future. :)

    It is, indeed! Also, the Class C has apparently moved to the other side of the wash. In other Q news.... The gas islands at Pilot are being worked on. The pumps are sitting in the corner of a fenced in area and it looks like the tanks themselves have been dug up as well. Not sure about any...

    Was not aware of all that regarding the Discount Grocery place. I haven't really shopped there much, so wasn't really up to date on anything there. I think I might have shopped there twice. As for the oil change thing, I usually get mine done when I go to Flagstaff. Generally at the Jiffy...

    Class C has moved in a bit farther from the road than the tow trailer (toward Pirate Camp). Otherwise still just me here. Saw a note on the check-in station window noting that the hours are 9-12, which I take to mean that even on the days they are open they are only open for 3 hours a day...

    Ok, first report from the Pirate Camp area. So far I am the only one here. There is a camper over near the side-road where we come in, but no one closer than that. Nice and sunny and so-far a very pleasant temperature today. Fire Ring is still present...looking forward to the fireside...

    Made it to Q day before yesterday. Currently at Plamosa with Jesse. Temps are not bad at all so far, tbh. Not too hot during the day and not too cold at night. Haven't gone to South as yet, so can't comment on the state of the Pirate Camp area.

    I haven't decided on a route yet, though I am thinking of taking 17 south. I'm waiting on a package before I head south, so I have time.
