Dawn with moon setting over the mountains south of Quartzsite

Jan 19th – I got up early and saw the moon set over the mountains to the west.  We went into town again with Dan and Teri to have a cup of 25-cent coffee – pretty good, especially at that price.  We visited another sign maker – hand carved wooden signs – and then left for the camp site.  We drove an hour and a half to Yuma but could not find the old time fiddle contest that is supposed to be happening.  I guessed that it must be a secret meeting because no one knew where it was.  All we could find was a bluegrass festival happening over the weekend but, since we are going to one next weekend, we gave up and headed for home.

The total trip was about 700 miles and a total of 10 days.  We found that there is indeed a market for carved wooden signs for a variety of uses.
