Sunny Days in Quartzsite





Quartzsite, Arizona. What a great spot. Most of the year Quartzsite has a very low population. The faces of the old-timers are road maps of wrinkles. These friendly people welcome any and all visitors with open arms. In January and February the population in this tiny decrepit and quaint little town swells into the tens of thousands as the snowbirds descend upon the area for the free camping that goes along with several big shows like the gem and mineral show, the car show, the RV show and many more.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Quartzsite, camped out in the desert with nothing around but the early spring wildflowers and beautiful sunsets. Our days were filled with a gentle warm sunshine, game playing, squirt gun fights and were topped off by a weekend visit from Grandma and Grandpa.
