Somewhere in the BLM land north and east of the desert town of Quartzsite, Arizona, some 70 MOC member/owners and friends and significant others (meaning over 140 humans and uncounted fur kids and pets) gathered this day for the official opening of the 8th Circling of the Montanas.

The firewood is gathered:


The morning weather was a bit more moderate and the gathering for visiting began:


One of the units in attendance was delivered about 7 days ago, see, temp tags!  Congrats to the new owners!


Flags fly high in the Montana circle:


At 4:30 p.m. the opening ceremony was held, many went to the ceremony early, meeting friends, socializing.


Our very capable wagon masters ready to explain the activities and the non-scheduled activities for which this rally is renown.   


Yep, coats, hats, gloves, the wind had kicked up once again, brrrr.


The sun sets over a Montana in Arizona:


Campfire, have wood, have fire!  All the better to ward of the chill (errr, COLD) temps.



The weather forecasts promise warmer days and nights!  Bring on the heat, any time, I am ready!  LOL  Let the Rally continue, friendships renewed, hugs abound, new friends to meet!
