I don't understand your explanation of Quartzite. Looked like a Gypsy convention to me.
Some RVers just love Quartzsite and wait the whole year to head back there in Snowbird season. Others going there for the first time take one look and keep right on going - and maybe do the Tums and Alka Seltzer thing on the way out. We all march to a different drummer as they say.
I fully sympathize with your feelings about Tucson from your perspective of the old days. I have similar feelings about the changes in San Diego over only 35 years. It just ain't the same no more.
Next time you head out this way read up on Californian touring. There are some absolutely wonderful parts of this state up north well worth checking out. The coast drive. The highway 49 gold country drive. Route 395 up the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada. And Death Valley, of course, over in that area. And don't forget the redwood country way up north.
Best of all to you. Good traveling.
