Before we were Traveling, Now we are NOMADS

Today dawned cool and damp with scattered showers, lighter than yesterday's rain and wind.  Yes it really did rain in the desert (it even snowed at the higher elevations).  By mid-morning the sun was coming out, and it turned out to be a great day for traveling, all of 21actual miles (that is counting the detour that added 20 minutes to our day).  We moved from the north edge of Glendale to the south edge to join 4 other couples in a church parking lot.  Here we are after setting up; the only motorhome amid 4 5th wheelers.

We just came from our "get acquainted" meeting where we learned that one other couple is also on their first project.  The others have completed dozens of these type of projects over the years.  Tomorrow we will go to another church where we will be working (that site doesn't have a parking lot big enough for all of us to stay).  Looks like a lot of painting and light carpentry is in store for us for the next 3 weeks.
