- We spent 4 weeks in the Quartzsite desert and had a great time, but saying goodbye to friends is hard. We move on to Yuma to get everything cleaned up, enjoy the warmer weather, and get some Can-Am riding in. Normally we stay at an RV park in Yuma, but this year we rent a lot in the Yuma Foothills.

It's so satisfying to see people happy and enjoying life.
So glad you enjoy it Reid. We are truly blessed to be able to live this lifestyle and have friends that we can gather with. Thanks for coming along and have a wonderful weekend.
I've been trucking 23 years the RV life is looking like a better alternative than buying a home
The glow of happiness is upon both of you! That in itself is a blessing. When it's really hard to leave someplace and the people you spent time with there, know that the Spirit of GOD was present and it was meant to be. So glad you both had a great time with your friends at Quartzsite. It feels so great when you know you are loved by others!
Enjoy your time in Yuma. I know you will have a blast! Take care and GOD bless!
That's so true Kenneth. We are so blessed to have friends that we can gather with and share experiences. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Jim, when you showed the jack lift in your video I thought to myself...there is no way he's raising that up looking like that! Appreciate you guys and blessed/encouraged by your videos each week. You two are the light of Christ to those you meet along the way as well as those of us still in sticks and bricks following your travels. Blessings!
Thanks Darin. We really appreciate the kind words....and no - we would never retract the jack in that position!
We would love to visit Yuma but we have cattle, horses and other ranch animals and lots of open pasture . We love it here
We do too....but we've pushed enough snow in our lives it's time to find 70 degrees! Stay safe guys.
Fits like a glove!
So far so good!
Enjoy your stay in Yuma
Thanks! Have a great weekend.
Hello Jim and Kellie another great Video thanks for taking me alone on your adventures
We appreciate you Stephen....thanks so much for coming along.
WooHoo!!!! On the road again!!!!!! It’s nice to make friend. Be careful. God bless.
Boondocking was fun Diane, but we're ready for full hookups! Hope all is well with you. Have a great weekend.
OMG, I watch you two prepare and get on the road, and I say at 71 years old, I cannot do what you all do!
It's definitely a process David! Have a great weekend.
Great video! Nice seeing your friends at Quartzsite saying good bye to you. Hopefully you’ll be able too stay in touch and see then again. Glad you are able to stay and get a place with full hookups. And glad you got laundry done. Looks like you are staying at a nice campground. It’s good to see you happy. Hope you had a great weekend and hope you have a great week. See you soon! Love you guys! 🤗❤️
We love you too Sherri! Hope all is well with you. One of these days we'll get out your way. Have a great week.
Cleaning the jacks is a must-do item. I always do it, especially at the dunes. Thanks!
Just a reminder for those that don't have a checklist! Have a great weekend.
Nice spot in Yuma! We tried to get into a few of those thru BW and Hipcamp, but couldn't find any openings. Gonna book for winter 23-24 in a couple weeks. We love the foothills area too!
So far so good! Thanks guys.
fun times I too am a Pedestal Princess (most of the time)
LOL....we really like to boondock Annette, but it sure is nice to have full hookups!
That looks like a real nice spot. Hopefully very peaceful and relaxing for you guys🙂
So far so good Kit. It's our first attempt, but we're really enjoying it.
Hey, We are Neighbors! We bought our Lot here in 2020 as a base camp, due to all the parks shutting down because of covid. Another YTer is out here too (Next Exit). I agree with you on the RV parks. They're fun if you want the pool and socials. But it's a lot more peaceful living with more space. And we love sunset walks when the weather is nice. Hope to meet you at some point. Let us know if you want to come by and see our set up on our lot.
That's awesome! We're really looking forward to the experiences while we're here. Stay tuned for meetup info...
You could make jack leg booties with some pieces of material and Velcro strips.
Thanks for taking us along with you
We appreciate you coming along Ken! Have a great weekend.
Nice video, Jim. I'll bet Kellie is glad that it's sunny and warm. Hey, I recognize that neighborhood! There is a gentleman just down the road from your lot that fixed our trailer a few years ago. He is a certified Big Foot tech and did an awesome job. It was pretty funny. He had our trailer up on blocks as he removed the rear stabilizer foot and re-welded it...right there on a side street. Nice guy. Enjoy the area. Also, there is a good "food truck" next door to Foothills Village RV Resort that's nice. I'm guessing you're glad you don't have to fetch water or waste for a few months. Hope you get some rides in...what happened to your mikes? That one video in Montana seemed to have good sound with you guys talking on the CanAm. Enjoy Yuma. Aloha David
LOL...ironically that gentleman is our property manager! Small world. Still working on the mics - as you know it's a process. Hope you guys are doing well. Stay safe.
The new option looks great! Hopefully one day I can join you for church somewhere. 😊
Would love to have you along Kyle!
Fantastic!
Thanks Stephen....we're really enjoying it.
Looking forward to doing the same thing
The weather has been great Kevin...come on down!
Hey Jim, at 5:21-5:24, your rear trailer jack on DS looks like it was dragging.
It was up Marcel....thanks.
@@SuiteTravels Good. Enjoy Yuma. I worked there 20 some years ago & have considered going back to stay like you all are. Enjoy the journey.
What a great place you guys have discovered in Yuma and staying with people from Montana... yay . Yes summer isn’t so far off lol doesn’t seem like it here in Montana , well enjoy Yuma we will follow along
The weather is beautiful now...come on down!
That was fun watching the video and seeing our friends houses as you walked by. Welcome to the Foothills! As I mentioned in my last comment you’re across from my parents. If you’re not busy this Saturday the 4th, we have a big group going on a full day ride. Most are people in your neighborhood. You are welcome to join. The more the merrier!
Thanks Kelly. We just found out about the ride yesterday and are considering it as we're still trying to get settled. Hope we can meet soon.
Interested in how you would find those kind of spots. Looks like something we would like!
Most are usually rented for a 4 month + lease Rex. You can find many of them on Craigslist.
@@SuiteTravels Thanks!
Nice! We are Canadian snowbirds at a newer resort just down the road from you. I quite often do my morning bike ride through that neighborhood. Enjoy!
You'll have to wave next time you ride by Simon! If you're interested in our meetups that we're trying to put together, stay tuned!
Great to see you are doing good and hope y’all get to relax some now. Stay safe and God bless
We're hoping so too Dwight. It's been a busy couple of months and we're ready for those 70 degree temperatures! Have a great weekend.
Awesome, looks nice and warm, I'm in Gallup 2/3 going to be 7 degrees, can't wait to get back to the Ozarks lol.
Be safe out there Dave. The weather reports look terrible!
It was great to see you guys in the Q .How did the starlink do for you guys love you
Thanks Gerald. Our Starlink preformed very well. We'll catch everyone up on a video.
SUTRV,;;HELLO,FOLKS,THIS PLACE INYUMA,IS LOVELY,ARETHEREFULLHOOKUPS ?,anyhow,there must be full bathrooms,as yousaid getting a great shower,,be well,safe travels,GOD BLESS YOu all,fromCOLD. NJ,,,,,🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes, we have full hookups and pay for electric in addition to the monthly rent.
I'm still here in Quartzsite leaving Thursday. I was looking into RV lots in Yuma may head that way if I can get someone to respond. Would liked to meet you guys while you were here but didn't want to impose on you. I'm very interested in getting to Yuma and seeing if it's for me, I also do not use the amenities at the resorts, thanks for turning me on to RV lots in Yuma
We are headed that way in September and love this , We did not know that this was a possibility , we don't use the amenities at the parks either and and not having to pay for them is great . We are TT members but would like to settle for a few months in one spot and this is perfect . Thank you for the info . Stay well and travel safe .
We stayed at a few of the Encore resorts in the past Amy, then we were able to drive around the neighborhoods and check to see if there were private lots for rent. Hope you find one.
Good to see you both are having a good time and both are staying safe. He in Kansas we're I live we been in the big freezes for the last few days. It's starting to warm up again stay safe and God bless you both
Everything is great Barbara....we're even getting 70 degree weather! Stay warm and hopefully you won't get any ice!
@@SuiteTravels thank you. No ice. Warming up here this weekend
Looks beautiful there!
It is beautiful Maggie and no snow is a bonus! Thanks for coming along and have a great weekend.
Welcome to the Foothills! We are on our 4th winter here in the Foothills on a private lot and we love it! Like you we do not use the amenities in an RV park and we love that we can ride either in the rugged rocks or the desert sand right from our lot. Make sure you check out Howl at the Moon while here, you can ride the Can Am. I believe this month it is Feb 6th, great people watching, live music, food trucks. Hope you enjoy your stay and maybe we will see you at one of your meet ups or out on the road or desert!
Thanks Susan! We're looking forward to experiencing it all...
That looks like a really really nice area I hope you enjoy your time there and I look forward to seeing your update on what you think about it and your adventures while you were there in the meantime stay safe stay well God bless
Thanks Allan. Hope all is well with you. Looks like you're going to get some cold weather this weekend....stay safe please.
Well that residential area you found which allows rv's is cool, how did you find it? Having the hills in Yuma just acrossed the road makes riding the razor very convenient. Y'all enjoy!
Thanks Sandy! We found lots available on Craigslist and just driving around the area. Most owners want a 4 to 5 month stay.
in 2 days we go to pick up our new to us class c and finally get to start rving. in a couple yrs after hubby retires we can hopefully get to quartzsite! getting soooo excited! watching ur videos has helped me decide I really want to do this. I hope we are as lucky as u two in finding community. we are both rather introverted.
That's so exciting Grammy! It does take some effort to get out and meet like-minded people, but the RV community is awesome! Let us know how things go.
@@SuiteTravels will do! 💖
Looking forward to hearing what you think about that place. Are you renting the spot for the two months?
We actually had to commit to 3 months Hank. Most of the owners want 4 to 5 months though.
❤the views!!
We do too Julie! In the morning or early evening the shadows on the hills are majestic.
Looks great…Jim what’s up with your back? Are you ok?
LOL...is it that obvious? The unusually cold weather has been tough on our muscles and joints - but it's supposed to be in the 70s for the rest of our stay!
@@SuiteTravels all the best. Take care. Back problems are not funny…
Come Stay in Casa Grande!!! Im assuming you'll be traveling via the I8 towards Tucson? Weve got a cut little farm you can come get away from it all. All except for boon docking that is, lol!
Thanks Bea! We will keep that in mind. Have a wonderful weekend.
I was stationed there at the Marine base. Are you planning on going to the Sand Dunes?
Thank you for your service George. No, we're not "dune" people, we just like to ride in the hills and explore that area.
Well that's a bit different, residential and RV zoning together. Interested to know how the cost compare to doing that versus an RV lot in a nice resort that you usually stay (and don't use amenities that you have to pay for). Been through Yuma many times going or coming to San Diego to/from Virginia. I like that part of the AZ desert. Enjoy your stay!
It definitely depends on the resort you're comparing with KB. We're paying about 1/2 of what we paid in December though.
Enjoy your stay in Yuma!
Thanks Marylu! The weather is finally starting to feel warm!
Hi Guys Just wanted to ask how you go about connecting with someone willing to rent a spot like that. We are thinking about doing the desert next winter but we're not into the boondocking thing quite yet. Have fun in Yuma.
Thanks Brad. Most of the lots are rented on a long-term lease - usually 4 months+, and you can find them on Craigslist.
Hey guys, are you close enough to downtown Yuma or another small town where you can hit restaurants and shopping etc?
Yes we are Paul. We're just on the outskirts of town, so all the amenities that Yuma offers are close.
This was in Yuma
Is that lot in Yuma for sale ? I think I have looked at that one on Zillow recently.
No it's not Jay. The owners have been in it for a couple of years.
What's the approximate cost per month to stay where you are at? By the way, we purchased an Alliance Paradigm 340RL a week before the show started, but at that show. Waiting for the solar and washer/dryer to be installed. Gotta pick up the rig in Sparks, Nevada in another week or so.
Congratulations Scott! That's awesome. These lots range between $400-$500 per month plus electric.
Thank you!
Spend that money! It’s why everyone was standing there.
I don't get it
@@PersononYT56 because you would be just standing there. Dur dur dureeeeee
Your fridge door was open, we heard the beeping and then noticed the fridge drawer open😢
LOL....if you mean while we were driving, it was our anti-collision warning. We were getting too close to the RV in front of us!
Hi there were coming to Yuma next week are there any lots for rent there?
Not sure Ron. Most of the owners want a 4 month + lease, but you can check on Craigslist to see what's out there.
How did you find the place you are staying? That is the type of place we would like.
You can find them on Craigslist and most owners want a 4 month + lease Kevin.
👍
Thanks!
💖💖💖
Thanks!
Hi guys... I do the same thing that you do about cleaning the landing gear.. Part of the maintenance and getting ready to leave... We know what you mean about missing all your friends ...we do too... Is this place in Yuma set up for R v's... They have full hook UPS ??? What do they charge ???.. Like you ..we do not use all the amenities in a resort... We're hoping that we can make it out there next year if this country holds together... That's going to be our game plan at least... Thanks for the video... And for God's sake please stay safe...J&A 😺🙋♀️🙋♂️
Thanks guys. Yes, there are two RV spaces on the lot with full hookups. They range in price between $400 -$500 per month plus electric. So far we are enjoying it!
@@SuiteTravels sounds good ..can anyone stay there...or..you have to be invited
@@jeannealex2560 If you can find a lot that isn't reserved anyone can stay, but most of the owners want a lease of 4+ months. Craigslist is a good way to start looking.
@@SuiteTravels thank you for the info
what do they charge per month for a place like that? Does it have full hookups?
Most of the lots rent for $400 - $500 per month Jeff and they usually have two full hookup sites.
Do you have full hook up in this place?
Yes Bonnie. There are two full hookup sites on the lot.
Guys, have a great time in Yuma..!!
Thanks Dennis....the weather is finally getting nice!
