WHAT'S DOWN with the BREHMS, 16 JAN. 2012

Yep! we're back on the road again. We had a very nice Christmas, and New Year holiday. We are back with our good friends at the yearly Salton Sea fest. We will probably be here for 6 weeks.




DIANE & DARLENE RESTING at the FMCA RALLY


The FMCA, a family motor coach club, has a rally every January at the DateFestival/Riverside County Fairgrounds. It's always enjoyable, with all the vendors, new motorhomes, seminars, and fellow RVers. We attended this years event, and here Diane and Darlene

FMCA RALLY, 2012, INDIO




Just a shot across the fairgrounds. We actually got by fairly cheap this year. One thing I did splurge on, is a tire pressure monitoring system that will tell me, from a monitor on the dash of the motorhome, the individual tire pressures of all 6 of the motorhome tires, and the 4 on the tow car. After our blow out on the tow car a couple of months ago, this system became a priority.

WESTSHORE BEACH


The Salton Sea is exceptionally low this year, but it's still there. Progress on reconstituting the sea as a recreational area seems non-exisitent.



FORMER YACHT LAUNCH





The marina at Johnson's landing. Now an example of the ravages of time.

SUPER SALTON SEA PARAPLANE


The campground here at Westshore RV. has a nice flat take off and landing ramp about the size of 3 or 4 footbal fields. Lot's of activity here on the weekends for parachute planes, ultra-lights, etc.
