    I’ve never understood even why truck drivers block the lanes at those stations, especially the RVers!! We never do that! Oh dang, glad they had another site for you, even though it wasn’t maybe the best site! Do you find a lot of sand spurs in the desert…I wonder about it for the dogs especially. The winery looked really nice!

    The truck lanes are not to be blocked and once fueled up, then pull ahead and clear the pump. It is madding when you are stuck in the line and pumps are blocked! But an RVer does it and pisses the truck drivers off a lot!! We got lucky and got a nicer site!! The sand burs have been bad in New Mexico and Arizona! Maya stops and picks up her paw 🐾 with the one that has them for us to get them out now! She had some good ones yesterday- 😢 . Thanks- Joel, Deb & 🐕 Maya

    Dang it! Right in the middle KZread threw me out. I make comments as I go so now I have to remember what I wrote. 😂😂. Rockhound State Park looks really nice for hiking with the benches and all. Being in a host site means it was probably one of the nicer sites; except for the dump station. Adobe Deli looked like a great place to eat. Bill would definitely need that rueben, and I would want that soup. Splitting was a good call. The winery looks really nice. I loved Jumanji too, but I'm definitely older than you so it wasn't a childhood movie. 😂. Be safe, Bill and DeAnna
