Circle the Wagons

The desert around Quartzsite, Arizona, is big. There is lots of room for lots of RVs to park there. And there are lots of groups that meet there. Some are big groups and some are small groups. And each group has its own way of parking.

I showed you pictures of the Escapee Class gathering where we parked every which way  in a general vicinity. And I showed you pictures of the View/Navion group pretty much lined up in two rows.

But some groups like to circle the wagons.

If you are a small group you can do it this way:

Circle 1

 

Parking nose to tail lets everyone have their door facing the center gathering spot.

But if you have a lot of rigs that makes your circle too big. So some groups park this way:

circle 2a

 

Side by side with everyone’s nose facing the center.

But for some of us that makes our side windows much too close to our neighbor’s side windows. It can be hard not to look inside and see what your neighbor is doing.

So our class group just parks any which way as long as we are not too close to one another. Which has the side advantage of letting each of us aim our solar panels or TV receiver the best direction for us.

Isn’t it great that there are so many right ways to camp?

  1. It is great that there are many ways to park. We get to do it our own way. I certainly wouldn’t be too happy being window to window with anyone too long. Hopefully those are short get togethers.

  2. I always find it fun to drive around and look at how others are parked at Q. I like the way we do it best.

  3. I’ll never understand why they park so close to one another. It is a BIG desert. When I do join others I like to park a distance away so that everybody has their own space and privacy.
