GMC friends we visited in Dexter, MO last summer &#8211; are parked.\u00a0 It is a maze of unmarked paths through the desert but we found our way to them pretty quickly &#8211; thanks to Dan&#8217;s directions on the cell phone.\u00a0 The area was beautiful and clean &#8211; it is all a very course gravel or rocks that keep the dust down.\u00a0 We parked next to them and decided to just spend a little time relaxing and enjoying the view &#8211; we can go to town tomorrow.\u00a0 Dan has internet access via his unlimited data plan with Verizon &#8211; not available any more &#8211; and he shared it with us.\u00a0 All the conveniences of home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"facebook\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=http:\/\/minniebiz.com\/gmcmotorhome\/2011\/01\/22\/indio-and-q-day-8-arriving-in-quartzsite\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http:\/\/minniebiz.com\/gmcmotorhome\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-facebook-plugin\/facebook_share_icon.gif\" alt=\"Share on Facebook\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/share.php?u=http:\/\/minniebiz.com\/gmcmotorhome\/2011\/01\/22\/indio-and-q-day-8-arriving-in-quartzsite\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share on Facebook\">Share on Facebook<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jan 18th &#8211;
