Our SECRET Desert Homestead: Settling In QUARTZSITE ARIZONA

I could tell you exactly where we are and why we’re here, but I think I’ll let the facts speak for themselves. “Quartzsite is a quintessential example of a "boom town" that thrives on seasonal visitors, creating a unique blend of transient and permanent populations. Quartzsite has a year-round population of about 3,500 residents. The extreme summer heat, often exceeding 110°F (43°C), discourages visitors from staying. But during the winter months the population can swell from 250,000 to over 1 million people during peak times in January and February. Quartzsite is surrounded by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land, offering inexpensive or free camping and has has become a gathering point for people in the nomadic lifestyle, including members of communities like those following Bob Wells and CheapRVLiving.” PS: About The Espresso Machine? https://www.amazon.com/shop/rickhiggi... 🎉 JOIN THE PARTY ...
