So if you follow my Twitter stream at all, which I’m sure you do, then you know I was in Yuma yesterday. I know what you’re thinking. OMG WTF Yuma?! Haha, yes. You see it is pretty much the halfway mark between Phoenix and San Diego and as such it was where Brian of Cheap Blue Guitar and myself decided to meet. Of course it was a year after deciding that we finally did it! I packed up my man Richard and he packed up Dyanna (@dyanna on Twitter) and we each set out on our 250+ mille journeys.
Oi. It’s totally farther than you think. Richard and I arrived a bit early and went off to explore the mall while Brian and Dyanna did their last 40+ miles. Haha. At exactly 2 PM Daniel from danielphillip.com and Brian of cheapblueguitar.com met face to face. So if your internet konked out at that time or you saw a blinding light, now you know why. LOL. Internet personalities collided. Once we did the always weird ‘I read you and chat with you everyday yet NOW we’re meeting’ thing, it was like chatting with old friends. It took a bit tho, because our waiter wouldn’t give us more than 2 minutes alone at a time. Poor ADD kid… Anyhoo, Brian and Dyanna are as awesome as you think. We gabbed a lot, enjoyed the unique culinary flair of The Outback, and the air conditioning. (I don’t know if you know this about Yuma, but it’s hot. It is past all these sand dunes and really in the desert. It was, I kid you not, eleventy million degrees out there.)
So after lunch we decided to treck out and explore the city.. erm, town. It was kinda like a ghost town. There was no one out, what with the oppressive heat. Also there is not much to see. But that in itself made it fun. We’ll always have Yuma! And I have added two more people to my list of Real Life friends!
Pictures were taken and I’ve swiped them all…
