... has water and dump available but no hookups. They charge $40 for 2 weeks or $180 for the whole season. We don't think we have ever seen so many RV's. The downside is that we are 2 months too late and it is way to cold for us. Too cold to sleep good. So we are leaving today and hope to be back someday in warmer weather.

... noch was davon habt"

Naja, nach dem Grand Canyon ging es dann in unser schönes Auto nach Blythe. Knapp 5 Stunden Fahrt durch die Wüste.

In Blythe haben wir uns dann ein Hotel gesucht und uns danach in den Pool begeben :-) Bei 41 Grad war das auch bitter nötig. Selbst um 20 Uhr hatte es noch 39 Grad.

... FJR and the other on a Rotax Spyder 3 wheeler. They were heading to Spyder rally near LA. The Spyder is a bit of an excentrics bike and the frightening thing was the rider was the twin of Mrduke, I'll say no more! Though it was a bit worrying when the FJR was put in a bag and Mrduke's twin went out and washed down the Spyder.

I am having trouble finding somewhere I can download photos but will as soon as possible.

... on the outskirts of Bullhead City as gas is the cheapest there. We get some coffee and push on with a stop in Lake Havasu City to let the dogs get some exercise. Interesting place and looks very trendy. We understand that this is the getaway for the people from the LA area and can get quite crowded in the summer and on Spring Break. It is also the home to London Bridge which has been made into some type of tourist attraction. (no we did not in to see it). We ...

... AZ, just before the bridge line, and it is in an old caboose. A retired bike marathoner, if there is such, buys me a palmo louca, or some sort of Mexi beer. Delicious; we photo shoot and he tells me about getting hit by a semi in his youth, ruined his new bike, decom'd his race, but he rolled out of the way. Good guy, people here have neat semi-spanish accents! super!

... air was very cool, so I dressed in layers and ended up taking most of them off. God blessed us with a very warm day and hardly any wind. Yahoo! I got a cup of tea and a donut (shhhhhhh!) while they set up the game. Dale told me to lose so we wouldn't have to spend all day doing this. We won the first game against Kathy and Terry. Dale threw two 5 pointers on top of each other, plus more points to win the game. The second game we won with ...

... it anyway and shared it with everyone. So I was up early, 5:45 to get it ready to bake. When I found out breakfast wasn't until 9 am, I went to sleep on our couch and slept so good. The room was warm by then. After breakfast we had a triathlon for old people. Wait a minute, we aren't old! We split up into teams S, K, and P - which stands for Escapee -SKP. Dale and I were on K team. Our first event was to take a ...

... always. Some members brag that they have NEVER hooked up to anything. Dale and I have boondocked many times in short spurts. Now we are trying it for 14 days. Things that we are doing is gathering up the clean water that comes out of the spout while we wait for the hot water to start. We then use this in cooking and washing dishes. We take either ...

... for the tent area. Right now it is the Rock and Gem show. Lots of pretty rocks, bling - blings and beads. Next week, the RV Show begins and the BLM land will fill up with boondockers. January 30 is the Craft Fair Show. We started our day running out to shop. You see, the tents are vendors that have everything anyone would want. We did find out that some vendors were no more than your average garage sale in Anywhere ...

... of us together didn't turn out, but the nice gentlemen who offered to take our picture then went on to give us a little history lesson on the Canyon. His help was wonderful to have at a time when everything was new to us. We spend about 15 minutes with him, thanked him and went on our way. Quite frankly, I was mistified that there were not more railings set up along the paths. It would be terrifyingly easy to slip ...
