January 27, 2012 ~ HANGIN’ OUT IN THE DESERT

From Brigham City UT, we headed into central California to have some work done on the coach, and then found time for a short visit with our family in Southern California before heading to southern Nevada. We’d planned on volunteering at the Lake Mead National Recreation area near Boulder City NV for the winter, but circumstances beyond our control ended our stay there before it began. In order to regroup, we headed west to Pahrump about an hour northwest of Las Vegas. We took a site at one of the casino RV Parks in town, and wouldn’t cha know it, the very next day I broke my foot (…yes, again!, for those who know me). So that pretty much solidified our plans, at least for awhile. I’m still not back to normal, but hopefully soon. I love my daily walks and I’m getting very anxious. I haven’t even been able to trek around and photograph the area. Oh well, it’s given Joe time to take care of his medical appointments while we’re in the area. We also had a nice visit with our friend Dick from Mesquite, who by the way, is a VERY bad influence. We partied like it was 1999, and the next day we all realized we’re not as young as we used to be. Shame on you, Dick; why did you force us to drink so much! Well, I guess this became our winter home, whether or not we planned on it. We’ll sit tight for awhile longer, but I think we’re all getting hitch itch (Roxy and Bella included), so it’s almost time to hook ‘er up and move along!
