Escapee Boomers in Yuma

Yuma, AZ

Escapee Boomer group gathered for a Potluck

We are really enjoying our time here in Yuma.  Becky has joined the Ladies 9-hole and Red Hat Ladies 9-hole groups so she can golf at least 2 days a week.  The Ladies 9-hole has a $3 entry fee for prizes and Becky took first in her handicap division on her first game, winning $6.  We're making money now!  Besides golf we have enjoyed the Soup Night Potluck in the clubhouse that included soups, salads and deserts.  Each Wednesday we get together with the Boomers for Movie and dinner.  

We joined the Boomers on Saturday at Ron and Sharon Mead's house in the Yuma Foothills for a patio party.  There were 70 plus Boomers attending the Potluck.

It gave us a chance to visit with RV friends like Donna Huffer and Bob Parker that we have not seen in a long time.  Donna and Bob were instrumental in getting us started with the Escapees.

Betty Anderson, Duane Peyton, and Bill Pollock.

Gisela and Bill Pollock who we chased all the way from Florida to Arizona.  They beat us to Arizona by a day.

Betty Anderson and Becky.  

Chuck and Jan Moore.  We have camped and met with them at Boomer functions.

Marge and Tom Maloney.  Friends we have made over the years.  They spend most of their time in Yuma now.

Bea and Ken Marler keep in touch with us through Facebook.


The patio just barely held all of us.

Ron provided the hot dogs...

Everyone else brought something to share.  No one went home hungry.

We all enjoyed the beautiful 74 degree day to visit and catch up on each others travels.  A lot of them are on the way to Quartzsite (80 miles north of Yuma) to dry camp on the desert for 2 weeks at Boomerville.  There have been as many as 120 rigs at Boomerville making for a fun group to camp with.  We will be staying in Yuma this year so Becky can work on her golf game.

Becky and Lonnie
