We spent a couple of months in Yuma, AZ in January and February to be in a fairly warm climate and so I could visit some doctors.

We stayed in an RV park in the northeast part of the city. To get to the park we traveled through about 6 miles of lettuce and broccoli fields! We saw workers harvesting crops every time we went into town or back from town. It’s all “stoop” labor, bending to cut the produce and straightening up to put it on the tables that were attached to tractors and moved through the fields. What hard work!!

We didn’t do much sightseeing while in Yuma although we did travel up to Quartzside one day which is about an hour north. It’s a very small town with huge RV parks all around it, some with hookups and some dry camping. There’s a huge RV show in January in Quartzside every year but we waited till that was over.
