A good place to be stuck

January is one of those months when it’s five weeks between Social Security checks. Under normal circumstances I have to be careful with my spending. Buying a couple of tires means I need to squeeze every last nickel for the next couple of weeks.

The largest budget item is usually gasoline. Unless I don’t go anywhere. So I’m staying put along the road to Palm Canyon in the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge south of Quartzsite. Atli, Joe and LaVonne are here, so I'm not alone. And it’s very pretty.

    what a lovely place to linger :)

    I was just looking at the calendar and those 5 weeks. They are always a pain in the wallet.

    Any hint of green from the ocotillos?

    You're going for the Goodyear Wrangler A/T, aren't you?

      The ocotillos are all leafy and green.

      Not as far as I know, although I do like a good dish of beans and rice.
