The Big Tent Event - Quartzsite

We have arrived once again at the winter desert campground known as Quartzsite. We're boon docking with a group of friends we've met on the Internet and camped with before. Right now there are 6 rigs, all manufactured by Monaco Corporation, with maybe another 10 joining in a couple days. You don't have to have a Monaco, Holiday Rambler or Safari brand to join us, but that's what we've got with us right now. The website we have in common is iRV2.com, a site we've found to be very friendly and helpful regarding all things 'RV'.

After getting settled in today we drove the 2 miles to the big tent and saw friends Tim & Crystal who sell RV Quick Shades and Sea Eagle Inflatable Boats. When we got back to QZ Camp it was only a short time before I saw Rick and the other guys looking into each other's storage bays, sharing and comparing. Next thing I knew, Rick & Tom were up on Tom & Jo's motorhome inspecting the roof and taking photos of the neighboring desert campers. For me, the best part about QZ is seeing how others live in their motorhomes - where they put everything, how they're organized, how they live.


We're on limited Internet access, but will post more photos and share more of this experience soon. There's a lot to see and do here, some of it bizarre and unusual.

  1. Glad you made it there safely!! What fun pictures. Give Rick the camera next time he's on top of the roof! Watch out for critters....

  2. Rick did have his camera and took the photos from the top of Tom's motorhome. I don't like heights. The only critters that I've seen out here are the Desert Rats of the human variety.
