A NEW PLACE TO STAY IN BORREGO SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA

After three days at the casino near Yuma, it seemed safe to move on.  We hung out near Yuma to make sure we were near the dentist in case the extraction caused any problems.  We had a couple of wonderful vegan meals at our favorite restaurant, Natures Express, at the 2900 block of 4th Avenue in Yuma and took a long walk along the canal bike path before heading to Borrego Springs.

Jim and Lynn Howe, our friends from Oregon have been in Borrego Springs since December.  They recommended we check out a new spot to park near the downtown area.  We think we have found the ideal boon docking spot.

We are about a quarter mile from the main shopping area of Borrego Springs.  It takes 5 minutes to walk into town to get the current addition of USA Toady.  Directly behind our coach is a trail that we can hike for exercise each morning.IMG_6455

We’ve found a place we think we can enjoy for quite a while.  IMG_6465
