HIGHWAY GUYS

Steve and Peter travel the roads of the U.S. in an RV (called The Beast). Steve is retired and disabled (mobility impaired) and Peter is his service dog. They started their adventure on September 11th ,2003. Home base currently is Los Angeles, California. On the road, they live in a 1993, 28 foot, Allegro Bay class A motor home. Their goal is just to enjoy the thrill of travel and exploration for as long as the Beast and their health allow.

060324 - EL CENTRO, CA

3/24/2006
El Centro, California


This is basically a pit stop on the way to Yuma. Found a gas station that sold propane @ $2.05/gal and then found a small, simple RVP with pull-thrus, and free cable.
We'll stay here 2 nights, do some more housekeeping, and then hopefully spend a week at a plush RVP in Yuma.
The weather changed drastically from cold to hot. We went from 30's at night wearing winter jackets daytime, to 50's at night and 86 in shorts daytime.
It feels good.

Slept in. Felt good. weather is very warm - in the 80's and we fired up our a/c for the first time. It's a new one, replacing the one that died last trip. It works fine. Ray, The park manager, is 84 years old, and a retired salesman. He lived in north-eastern Idaho for a long time, and we spent time talking about places I traveled last year. He was really helpful and very talkative with some entertaining stories. This is the real joy of travel – the people.
Till next time,
