  • I have always said I would never go to Quartzsite. Well, I went.
    Come and see an Ironwood Tree that is over 1,000 years old.
    I will take you through a Slot Canyon, and camp on the Colorado River.
    Grab your favorite beverage with snacks and snuggle in for this week's Sweet Vlog!

    The temp probably dropped lower than the 2? am temp,as it usually drops to the lowest around 4 am so at 0730 it was probably just starting to warm back up.

    I personally do not care for quartzite. Never went there this past winter. No decent groc stores, few restraunts so only Lake Havasu for me.

    I was wondering, as a solo driving female and some of the remote places you go, do you carry or have any self protection?
    PS: I enjoy relaxing with my coffee in the mornings and watching your videos. They have a very calming effect. 😊

    • @NinthElement
      @NinthElement  7 місяців тому +1

      Hi Sandy, it makes me smile that you enjoy my content over coffee. That sounds sweet. I have multiple forms of protection, but, I will never discuss them on the internet or in real life. That would leave me vulnerable if anyone was trying to stalk me to harm me. I also use my intuition, meaning if something feels off or not right I leave that area. I hope to see you here next week, Cheers!
