We made it to California, OK, it's a half mile from the Colorado River & AZ. Actually northeast of Yuma. It is a BLM campground on an impounded portion of the Colorado River, nice water scenery, only 20 miles from town, only $7.50 with our Senior Pass. Plenty of very friendly people. We were not here very long before we had met a half dozen. It is paved like a parking lot, so it isn't perfect. No hookups but they have pay showers (7 min. for $1) which is easier than the camper shower.
This morning on the way through Why AZ (yes, that's the name!) we saw a coyote cross the road in front of us, stop in a parking lot and cross again behind us. My iPhone camera was too slow to get a photo. It took a whole minute to focus.
