YOU TOO can spend winters in Arizona!

[@valeriefrench9405]

You are so blessed to have Linda as your wife. She’s wonderful! Both of you are. Love your videos

[@rogertemple7193]

I really enjoyed seeing this area of Arizona in the desert especially the vendors market that you were at this was great trip until next time thank you Rick and Linda.🌞🚌🇺🇲

[@acinfla9615]

Worked the flea market back in the 70s in Tucson Arizona. All the stuff you’re showing from Mexico is what I sold. Now it’s Chinese stuff but my boss went to Mexico regularly and I sold it. I learned more by selling and sleeping the weekend flea markets than I did in High School! What an awesome adventure and I feel bad for my children and grandchildren that they won’t experience adventure. At 14 I would have thousands of dollars in my pocket my pocket and my boss trusted me to make a fair deal. It was scary at times but it’s a life experience that has helped me.

My parents wintered in Yuma for about 20 years. Originally they drove down and home to SW Ontario for six months. For the first two years they boondocked and the following many years they bought a trailer and stayed in the park. I went down usually the end of February for two weeks. My arthritis used to party it was so happy with the weather. Most of my earrings and pendants came from Algodones. I had hoped to do some travelling. I was going to head across Canada to the west coast and then down the west coast to San Diego and then east to Yuma. Then I was going to winter there. Unfortunately all great plans go to heck. Maybe next year. You helped me with nostalgia. Thank you.

[@Gail-ux2ly]

I cannot imagine a less inviting place to visit than Quartzite during the big tent affair! All the hustle and bustle just makes my skin crawl.

[@jeffv7726]

Never did like those no suspension electric bikes.Especially the one that hurt Linda .Glad to see you back on motorcycles !!!

[@beberle9641]

Hey Rick and Linda thanks for taking us along we appreciate your friendship and hard work. Brian from Colorado 🤠

[@lshirley5601]

happy trails to you two ✌🌵

[@paulhunter546]

Ajo is a cool town. Last year when staying out on Darby Wells Rd..I rode my Ebike into Ajo taking the dirt road the back way into town 😁👍

[@1954shadow]

Dam good video!

[@davidw2959]

Always love your channel.

[@paddlegal3097]

The dust is one of the things I dislike the most about spending the winter in Arizona. The sunshine sure makes it worthwhile!

[@ButterflyKisses.]

New to this channel on KZbin, you're a beautiful couple.. and that is truly a unique scarf.😊

[@Steve-Goff]

Thanks for taking us along for your adventure. I’ve never been to Arizona. My wife has a few times on business trips and really enjoys it there

[@SusanMelano]

Love your signature song at the beginning & end!

[@tjf3430]

Thanks for touring all our winter stomping grounds, sure miss our trips to AZ. Here MT waiting for next round of snow “storms”. God Bless you as you continue your winter trip

[@TrekkingwithDebandMike]

You are right. Have fun.

[@borandell9915]

That hat looks great on Linda. Lots of Nomads have been commenting on the wind at Quartzite this year. It does complicate things.

[@annhysell6064]

Rick, I have to chuckle, your shadow looks like John Wayne in westerns..legs forever! And Linda, you grew UP, lol. Great of the fireman to share some history. Love the last little shop, that is my kind of place! Be well.

[@wandacraig8286]

Loved rhis! So much info. I had seen a show oncd about California's Salton Sea but didn't know how it firmed, only that it had become so tixic that everyone living there abandoned it. That flea market looked like fun and i sure like Linda's new hat! And yes we are getting snow here at home and super cold starts again tomorrow night. Take care you two❤

[@RaymondUssery]

Hi Guys! This is Ray and area again… did you ever go out to Brenda east of Quartzite and watch the Brenda lights along the ridge in a north east direction behind the little store in Brenda? The lights usually show up about 8:30 or so to 10:-10:30 this time of year…pretty amazing display that has been seen for hundreds of years and beyond!! Happy travels! Pretty amazing display…the.’ve been seen for as far back as

[@aztrails1]

The hat looks great Linda

[@richardmitton4115]

Hey guys! Thanks for bringing us along. Love the tiny camp rig. You guys seem to have it figured out! Love the TW200...perfect camp bike!!

[@tangobravo8889]

“Colorado River floodwater breached an irrigation canal being constructed in the Imperial Valley in 1905 and flowed into Salton Sink”. Sounds like he was spot on. Dam dam🤣 you owe me a cup of coffee, I started laughing so hard when you said that I spilled my coffee ☕😂

[@joangosselin]

Thanks for the tour :)

[@n164bj]

I think l got your plan figured out. Take the bike to town and Linda cant buy much and carry it back to camp.😂 But where theres a will there's a way. I carried a radiator as.a backpack from Montpellier Id back to camp. Fun experience but above 40mph it wants to pull you off the bike. Oh the adventure of travel! Thanks for sharing your trip.

[@authordebradickinson]

Interesting about the “damn dam”. Wow! I used to be a scuba instructor and dove with students in the Salton Sea before it died. My booth was J22 on the vendor side, near the food court, Jan 17-26. Would have been great to see you again! Love the hat, Linda. 👍🏼 Sorry, Rick, I absolutely boondock in remote solitude in Q. One just has to go further out. 😘I should have given Linda one of my books! 🤦🏻‍♀️ Safe travels.

[@TalkingWithMyselfAgain]

Thanks for taking us along. I keep trying to get to AZ during the Big Tent or the RTR and in my experience there isn't anything past Exit 1.... I always get stuck in Blythe and have to turn back. Thank you for making it seem so real, lol.

[@MOTrav]

Glad you’re enjoying a warmer Winter! Do you ever get back to Hawaii for a visit? My son lives there and always lets me know about the nice weather. 😎

[@nancyeboyens1400]

Really enjoyed your video. Love all that you guys do. Joining others in prayers for Andrew Cross Desert Drifter after terrible car accident. He is still in critical danger.

[@gonagain]

Thank you, we've been praying for Andrew.

[@1954shadow]

Did you hear the news, you no longer need a permit to film inside a national park.

[@larryparson9609]

Heard That from some where MAGA executive order PTL America 🇺🇸

[@stevertherver3887]

I'm glad to see you two enjoying your winter somewhere warm, "er". The flea market looks similar to Indiana's Shipshewana. It's probably some of the same vendors. Take care, safe travels!

[@DanielField-o6j]

Dan and teresa here . Thank you for another wonderful video. Of nomad life. Great to meet up with you two in the yuma area. We will be here until the last week in February. Then heading to pahrump for annual doctor's appointments. If you're still in the Yuma area in February. Please stop by and I'll have a key lime pie to bake on Standby. If not maybe in Pahrump . Until next time, see you down the road with Gods Peace🎉❤

[@gonagain]

Hi Dan! Hi Teresa! It was great to see you both and chat for a bit. We're currently in Ajo but will be heading easterly tomorrow. That promise of a key lime pie is almost enough to change our route, lol. Maybe we'll see you another time, another place. God bless.

[@richardmaxey713]

Very Nice

[@jr2no160]

Yes, Ajo is a great winter place and Why has very cheap "limited" RV parks with water, laundry and shower facilities in the park.

[@williamrandall6472]

Awesome video Rick and Linda, can't wait to see the next adventure you find yourselves on. Waving at ✋️

[@sarah_n_tank_girl]

I will get down to Quartzite one of these days...

[@CITAP1]

The Salton Sea could still be such a cool destination as it was up into the sixties if they had left some of the river pouring into the Sea to keep it's level stable. My brother flew practice runs for the Navy ASW in the fifties. The Salton has filled and drained with the shifting of the Colorado over many thousands of years. Now days the river channel is maintained and will never again naturally fill with silt and change course naturally. Hey, if you see a 7mm 1/4" drive socket, I can't find mine, just send it by pigeon... Take the 20 mile drive in Organ Pipe. Very cool. Get your senior discount, trail pass included with your camp fee. Five mile drive is cool too. Take care.

[@driveabout1world872]

Glad to see you two out and about. I’ve been using a LeVolt air purifier to capture the dust and lint inside. While it’s sounds weird, I use a 18vdc hand blower to get the dust and lint airborne and the air purifier picks it up.

[@gonagain]

That's a great way to get rid of dust and lint! I just cleaned the vent fan of lint and dust, yuck.

[@homelessnomad101]

11:06 Rick, I bet Ms Linda really loves her new nick name you gave her "Miss Hawaii" lol

[@EfficientRVer]

Maybe he met her at the pageant in a year which has now been classified... or even when she was Junior Miss Hawaii.

[@glennpackert1725]

I hope she bought, O she bought it, great!

[@DreamerFL431]

Always love your videos R and L from PV in H.

[@taj-ma-haul9094]

I spend Winters in Arizona 😂😂😂❤

[@JeffNielsen-l9c]

Recent filming. It was very windy last week and then "cold" (Az version). She looks good in that hat. I live in Mesa. You worry about a little dust? AJO, is another place where you could have bought a co. house for a hundred bucks.

[@ajlivinthedream]

Hello Gone Again. Amy & J here. We are in Quartzite off Plomosa road we are thinking of heading to Yuma on Friday. Never been there. Supposed to be Boondocking there. Have you two boondocked there before

[@bobham919]

that place at tyson wells has candy bars for 75 cents. yum yum

[@jamesbird6966]

Desert dust gets into your eyes and causes floters!

[@jamesjackson7752]

Hey😊😊

[@gbmarie836]

I have a question for you I’m asking you because you are so knowledgeable about everything camping. We would like to get a small trailer for camping but then I saw a video of a solo camper explaining how in the middle of the night someone wired his door shut and if he hadn’t have had another door out he would have been in a life threatening situation. It really shook him up. That made me very scared of camping. I see so many of those swinging grab bars and all I can see now is someone closing it and blocking me inside. How could a person make sure they could always get out no matter what?

[@janetmitchell1053]

Hello! Sorry I didn't cross paths with you guys when you were in Quartzsite. This is my 2nd winter here & I'm kind of wondering about considering going somewhere else next year. What's your opinion about Ajo for the winter? I'd be boondocking. Thanks! Always enjoy your videos!

[@gonagain]

We love Ajo. It's about the only place where we like to stay for a length of time. Lots of folks winter here. Its not busy, prices are high but its great place.

[@CMC61]

I always thought that riders get on the motorcycle after the driver. Maybe times have changed!

[@stevec2665]

The new hat looks good Linda. Is that cute little town that you ate at the same as the town with the car wash? If so how do you spell the name of that so I can put it on my bucket list?

[@applesbighatranch6906]

At about 13:30 you describe what it's like being in Quartzsite vs dispersed bo0ndockin'... I so very much favor the latter... but then meeting up in town for PIE lmao yes! please. Thanks. "Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam and the skies! are not cloudy all day. Where seldom is heard a discouraging word and there're no a-holes running gensets all week nonstop. Home! Home on the range... Where the deer and the antelope play... where the trucks and the cargo trailers stay... and there's no bad manners and bad camp etiquette to bother me." - I think that's how that goes, isn't it? I'm not a songwriter so you will please forgive me. hee haw

[@sanrafaelhoa1363]

Where ARE you when you got coffee?

[@crackerjack6075]

Wait, Colorado River flows from North to South, so how could a dam in Los Algodones /Yuma break and then flow back toward the direction of the River's origin? Well I'm still a little fuzzy about the 1905 occurrence, but hydro-dynamically it must help that the dam was approximately elevation 108 feet above sea level, but the Salton Sea basin approximately is -226 feet below sea level. Still, it seems like the dam break needed to flow ~40 miles over thirsty sand that probably isn't flat, so even 300 foot slope over 40 miles... smoke coming from my head. Or maybe the dam water flowed the downhill in an existing aqueduct, where they didn't design 'Gates' to mitigate a dam failure?

[@papatravels61]

Been there many times, i wont go back

[@davec9244]

That area is a nice place to stay warm, but in a month, she will be hot as hell! nice job, thank you both

I moved to AZ, 27 years ago & it ain't warm! It's 100 degrees in the summer, then 30 degrees colder in the winter. When the sun goes down, the temp drops like a rock! It's a dry cold so it chills ya to the bone! Now go back & show us what's in that ammo tent!
