Yuma, November 28

Today we drove to Yuma from Tucson.  We got to our RV Park (Desert Paradise) just after 1 pm and checked in.  Since they have a nice heated pool we went for a swim, and Enid enjoyed the hot tub.  It was a nice warm day as well.

I needed to get an adapter for the cable TV so after swimming went to the office.  I walked back a different way to our trailer and was really surprised when I passed a trailer with a sign “Ken Haugen, Prince Albert” on the front.  Since Ken and I taught together at Carlton years ago (he retired in 1996), I knocked on their door, but they weren’t home.   However, later on in the afternoon I saw that their truck was there, and so walked over and we visited for a couple of hours.  It is quite a coincidence that we are parked so close.  Had they been in the same park, but farther away (since there are 250 sites here) we would never have run across them.
