The Fiberglass Rally

(And A Recipe)

That would be ‘Fiberglass Rally’ as in molded fiberglass travel trailers and fifth wheels, such as Casita, Bigfoot, Scamp, Escape and Oliver.  They tend to be on the smaller side, rounded, and made of two molded pieces of fiberglass, a top and a bottom, held together with a belly band.

This is the 10th annual rally here in Quartzsite.  Since it’s a wide open area with lots of space here on BLM land, and it’s free, no reservations are necessary.  There have been about 150 trailers here this year.  The Q rally tends to be informal, with not too many scheduled activities, which I like.

And more. Hey, WS is in this one, right of center, with the awning out, with a bushy thing in front of us, blue car to our left.

Lots of furry friends are here!

Here are are a few….Merlin, the excellent Schnoodle on the left.  Upper right…oh dear I can’t remember the name!  I’m sorry!  And lower right is Jessie.

There are various little dogs, medium dogs, and even a Great Dane, traveling in a Casita!

You know these two!

Yesterday’s sunrise.

In the last post I mentioned a Margarita recipe, and a number of people have asked me to share it.  So here it is.

One 12 oz can of limeade concentrate. ( Minute Maid is better than the others)

Empty that into a blender and refill the can with your favorite tequila.  (I like El Jimador, gold). Empty that into the blender and refill the can half way with triple sec. Add a couple scoops of ice and blend like crazy. The  blender I have chops the ice up fine.

Taste it.  You might want to add more ice or some water…depends on how you like ’em.

Rub a lime quarter around the rim of a glass then dip the top of the glass in salt.  Add a little ice into the glass and pour in the margarita.  Hang a slice of lime from the side of the glass, and there you have It!

Yum.  🍹
