One of the
items we purchased in Quartzsite at a RV accessory supplier was this sun shade
that attaches to the awning. This actually works better than I thought it would
because it is very hard to see through from the outside thus giving us a nice almost
private screen room, I say almost because there are no sides. Anyway it keeps
the area under the awning completely shaded.

We toured
the Yuma Territorial Prison today. The prison was in operation from 1876 until
1909. A total of 3,069 prisoners lived
there including 29 women during this time.

A look into the cell area
Up to six prisons shared a cell with nothing but a bible and a pot for a toilet

Here are
