Overnight in Quartzsite

Headed out today from Arizona for the trip north today. Getting too hot here and I was getting restless for a road trip. Stopped for the night near Quartzsite, Arizona a little after noon. Very windy for the last couple of hours before I stopped. The Born Free handled good but I needed to be very alert for strong gusts. Made for a tiring day even though I stopped early. I left Ken's place at 6:45 and drove almost non stop. 

Here is my campsite. Not too many people here. 



My Born Free looks rather bare. I removed the large grey stripes because they looked very dirty like there was mold or something under the surface. 

This is what they looked like after cleaning. 



So I took them off. It was pretty easy, I just let the hot Arizona sun cook them a bit and peeled them off. So long ugly stripes. The other stripes are glossy and don't have the dirty look. 

Life is good.
