GFD now BFD

Ten weeks in the GFD (God Forsaken Desert). Now some time to think about it.

We made a lot of good friends. Fireside chats. Pie runs. Hikes. Beautiful hills and country all about.

However, we were too often sick from the blowing sand. Blowing all the time. Plus lots of work maintaining our electric, water, and septic. Staying there in the future would mean buying additional equipment to mitigate some of the work, but would not improve our health.

Thus we have decided not to return for an extended period. Maybe a few days on the way elsewhere. Preferably somewhere equally warm but with more flora.

Thus the GFD becomes the BFD (Brod Forsaken Desert).

We will stop at the Escapee park in Congress, AZ on our way back to consider it for a winter roost.
