Mayflower Campground, Blythe, CA

After leaving Desert Hot Springs we hung out at the Mayflowr County Park in Blythe, Ca. for a week. Who wouldn't at a price of $210 a week which includes electricity. Because of the good prices, which are slightly higher during the winter months, many many Escapee members spend their winter there. It is close to Quartzsite and not far from Yuma. The main activiy during the month, we have heard, is lawn bowling and the participants are very serious about the game. We went to the Mayflower because friends of our, Bobby and Judy, recommended it. We will definately go back there.

This is the pond seen at the edge of the campground right where we were camped. It is also a pathway out to the Colorado River.

Don always loves cruising around in his inflatable boat whenever the chance presents itself. He goes first and after awhile I do get to join him.

The scenery is pretty with the mountains in the background.

And sometimes it is pretty rought out there on the Colorado

River.

It is possible to find really shallow spots on which to take a walk-about .

Staying at the Mayflower County Park in Blythe, Ca. was a real pleasure completed by the friendly people and beautiful Colorado River.
