Thank Our Lucky Stars: Lake Havasu

February/March 2018

From Yuma we moved on to the Lake Havasu area of Arizona. With our Colorado River Adventure and Coast to Coast Membership we can stay for free at some nice RV parks for up to 2 weeks. I like to time it and move around to get as much out of the membership as possible. So we stayed in 4 or 5 different parks for pretty cheap. Some of the parks were nicer than others but it’s Arizona so the views were pretty spectacular in all of them!

It's hard to tell but the desert was fill with RVs!

We drove through Quartzite, AZ. Some consider it the RV Capitol of the country. They have a big Gem and Mineral show there every year that we’ve never been to. I’m more into rocks than Larry but I’m not sure if even I am up to the massive numbers of people and rigs. They have lots of RV Parks in the area but some people prefer to “boondock” in the desert for free. You can’t really tell from the picture but the desert was filled with RVs! No hookups and no sewer is not for us! I’d rather pay and get a few comforts!

Fun Roller Coaster Road!

This guy liked to hang out at the park!

Haven't seen was of these in a while so I took a picture!
And yes it worked, I checked!

Beautiful Lake Havasu!

Being on the road full time presents some challenges for medical care. We try to visit our doctors in California when we go back there in December but sometimes things happen along the way. One things that happened was our annual vision check. Somewhere along the line I lost my prescription sunglasses and since my prescription hadn’t changed I elected to use my one free pair a year on new sunglasses!

My new shades!

Loved this view!

Moon rise over the mountains!

We finally got an RV state map. We decided to only put up the states that we have been to since retiring! Hopefully we'll get those NorthEastern States filled in soon!
