We have been camped in the desert around Yuma, AZ since the end of Nov. except for the week we flew to Raleigh, N.C. We had fun with the Boomers near Mittry Lake as we ate Christmas and New Year dinners with them and visited at Happy Hour and the Z Circle.
The only bad thing is that I’ve been quite sick the last few weeks with coughing, congestion, fever around 100 degrees, night sweats and fatigue. Terry was very concerned about the fact that I didn’t get better so he made an appointment with a pulmonary specialist in Lake Havasu City. The doctor ordered a chest x-ray, and four vials of blood. The hour-long pulmonary tests were done in phone booth appearing apparatus that was connected by tubes to a computer. All tests were negative or normal. No, I don't have Valley Fever.
The best guess is that I have some kind of immune response to dust and the spray they do on vegetables to prevent weeds in the winter vegetable area of AZ. I’ve had similar response to concentrated cigarette smoke. The good part of this is that I’m not considered to be contagious.
Yes, we moved to the Colorado River area near Parker but hope to see the Boomers again at Quartzsite.

The fever indicates an infection of some sort. Do you get a fever from exposure to an allergen? Hope you get better soon. Not fun to be ill!
