Tyson Wells and we’ve been invaded!

I got up this morning and went over to the RTR for the 10 AM meeting.  I stayed for the announcements and then headed back home.  The topic today was Mystery shopping and that isn’t my cup of tea.  After I got home we got things around and headed to town to do some exploring.

021

Tyson Wells was on the list today to visit

We headed into town to do some more exploring .. it’s just one big, super duper flea market here and I’m not sure we will ever see all of it. 

030

We went from place to place looking and we did do some buying Smile

031

they had live entertainment and they were pretty good

017

even had their own little bar set up .. a great day to be outside but of course we do not drink.

018

This sign described what the place was

013

032

my boys will appreciate this sporting car that is for sale

033

as several of you know I’m addicted to rugs .. they had some beautiful ones .. but my model is if it can’t be washed I do not need.  Having dogs and a tracking things in our home with our travels being washable is a must!

034

It was another beautiful day with the sun out and the temps finally bearable that lots of people are out and about.

035 

they have anything you could possibly want at these places

036

this vender had unique trees and wood things.

037

a knife collection booth .. of course hubby had to check it out.  Although I was shocked he didn’t buy anything

038

hmm .. these were different

039

for dress up maybe?

040043

lots of food booth’s and since we left home early .. finally the smells got the best of us ..

 

042

this stand has a special going today .. 2 hot dogs and a drink for $5 .. can’t beat that

044

you could get grilled onions and kraut on your dog if you wanted.  We both chose the onions only

045

they had a nice place to sit down and rest while we enjoyed our lunch

041

I love looking at the colorful clothing although my body is not built for it Smile

046048

baskets! I love em .. but I resisted today

049

several of these venders have their shops setup right next to their homes and some even sell out of their home .. pretty neat

050

this would have been a welcomed booth but it was closed up for the day

051

they still had a charlie brown tree out

053

booth after booth and we have not begin to even to touch the surface of these booths

054

after all the walking and it getting late in the afternoon a snack was needed.  we stopped for a wonderful cinnamon roll, they were $4.50 but huge, we shared one

047

venders home are next to their booths

055

this caught my eye

056

after a long fun filled day I had enough walking and my back was screaming so we headed home .. wow the streets are packed

059

Rigs are rolling in by the doves

060

it’s mass confusion on the roads

066

this guy had the right idea .. staying off the roads was smart

067068026025024

on our way back home we noticed that the desert is filling up

028081

more and more white specs out there

082084

everywhere you look you see white specs of rigs in for the big tent show that starts Saturday

085086

wow we got closer to our home and we had a hard time finding it

088

We have been invaded by campers! 

089

we have campers all around us .. except for our front yard looking out our door.  In order for anyone to invade our beautiful front yard they will have to park in a wash.  I still have my beautiful view and we are secluded just the way we like it.  behind us we are invaded but we still have our seclusion in our front yard. 

090

We got home and I got out my book and relaxed in my lounger and then we took the dogs on their afternoon walk and hubby came home and fired up the grilled.  He grilled some steaks and made some mac and cheese and we enjoyed a quiet dinner at home.

001

Later we went over to the RTR for the talent show.   One of the RTR people have their own little Tiki bar setup with music and all

003

the talent show started out with some jokes.  Everyone was asked to keep them clean

004

a nice fire was going

005

Lori played her guitar and sang some songs from her album she had made. 

006

We visited a bit and then headed home to fire up the generator to charge our batteries and then it was an early night to bed after another exhausting fun filled day here at Q.  We are really loving being parked in the desert.  Esp with the temps warming up and all week long the temps are so suppose to get better and better.  Our time here is flying by and it’s hard to believe before long we will be packing up and leaving to a new location.
