a cloudy day in Quartzsite Arizona

Sunset pictures of the Quartzite desert.

It's been pretty cloudy today, and the clouds are thick enough that I'm only getting about 10 amps an hour from the solar panels. And even though that's about 1/3 of what I would normally get in the winter with the sun this low on the horizon it's still enough to charge my batteries back to full in a few hours.

It was great to have a night last night of absolute silence. At the place where I've been for the last two weeks, the place that rhymes with "have a Sue", there was enough people around me that with the noises people normally make and their generators running, there was almost never any silence, so last night was a real treat.

Despite the fact that I'm going to leave tomorrow morning I was still going to roll the little Beta 250 off the rack and ride it around a little bit, I promised it I would. But the weather even though still warm wasn't a motorcycle kind of day so I left it covered up and locked down until we get to Ben Avery's gun range.

After the holidays when folks start coming to town this view will have several RVs In it. But at the moment there's not much going on, just peace and quiet.
