"Oh, the places we will go" - Quartzsite & ??? #atozchallenge

Quartzsite is small town, well, most of the time. Every January it becomes home to RVers, from pop-ups to million dollar motorhome. Nine major gem and mineral shows, and 15 general swap meet shows attract over 1.5 million visitors annually.

It's the essence of quirky, with a dash of flea market, a splash of RV dealers and a splosh of RV/camping vendors all mixed with thousands of RVs either in the local RV parks or boondocking in the desert.

Everyone needs to experience it at least once. Most either love it or hate it. I loved it and couldn't wait to introduce it to Stu.

Here are some blog posts and photo links from my visit as well as ours.
