"salt cedar" is actually tamarisk, you may have heard of it. It is native to the middle east, but not here, and was planted extensively in the deserts here as a windbreak because it tolerates salty desert soils. It is controversial now because it is invasive and takes over the natural cottonwood habitats along the rivers. Nice to see you moving along. I don't comment often, but do read.Sue Malonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00332448503740101970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-3462099579734096352018-01-08T09:17:01.079-06:002018-01-08T09:17:01.079-06:00Yes, the days Daddy took us gravel running seeing ...Yes, the days Daddy took us gravel running seeing if he could get lost.

We took CA-78 west from Ogilby Rd on our way to Borrego Springs last year and we remember the dips/roller coaster, and the dunes. <br />We run our generator at least once a day. As long as people are courteous about it and are not running it to early or late I do not think any one worries about. Though, Tom, like Bill does worry about the noise.<br />Sounds like you are all set up at the "Q" and ready to enjoy and relax. We are planning to be up there in a couple of days.Tom and Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564285175697134395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-13971855615280227592018-01-07T21:47:16.187-06:002018-01-07T21:47:16.187-06:00I liked the view of the dunes.

I wouldn't worry about the generator, I think more and more people arriving means more and more generators running anyway. You'll just blend in. Enjoy your time here at Quartzsite.

I understand what you are saying about generators but we really appreciate Bill's view. As long as we have sun we can watch TV, use my blow dryer, the toaster, etc. without running the generator. We have always traveled with a Honda generator and there are times we need to use it when there is no sun. But you are right, people are using their generators and you have to expect that when you are boondocking, it's just part of the experience :-)Maxx Trailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17647773287881908085noreply@blogger.com
