A Celebration of Lee

Quartzsite, AZ  High 77  Low 48

We moved down to La Posa South and got set up by the Escapees Class-less Class group. Was lots of fun catching up with friends we haven’t seen in years and meeting new friends.

Wednesday was the big party. We were there to celebrate our good friend Lee, also known as IYQ. Lee has been an RVer for over 30 years and knows more about RVs and everything associated with them than most of us will ever know.

Carol composed this wonderful proclamation for Lee and we all signed it for him. I think he really enjoyed his party.

We had 36 or 37 folks show up and we put on a spaghetti feed. Enough food to feed everybody several times over.

After the celebration, we had a class-less class picture taken. Somebody said that getting us all arranged was like herding cats but I think cats would have been easier. Denise took these pictures so I just “borrowed” from her.

We are so blessed to have a professional photographer in our group. Carol Ann Dwyer is amazing. The above two pictures are us as we sit and wait for that perfect moment.

This is Denise providing us shade while we wait. We met Denise and Bennie our second year of full timing and have become the best of friends.

Then Carol says it’s time and takes about a zillion pictures. This is the final product and it is fantastic.

Thank you Carol.

  1. It was fun! Carol certainly did a great job putting together the proclamation for Lee. Again, we have another great photo she took of all of us! Now I wonder what Lee will do with what was presented to him.

  6. What fun! Carol's pictures are really good - lucky you had a photographer on hand. Lee shoudl probably write a book about RVing from then until now.
