Friday 15~~~~~~Today we have a short trip about 200 miles to Laughlin, Nevada. We started at an elevation of 7,000 + feet and ended up at 500 feet. That means we got good mileage as we weren't climbing hills most of the way. We will also be back in an altitude that we are used to so we won't be out of breath when we do any little exercise. The Riverside RV Park is where we stay in when we are in this area and we will be staying for a week, they have a good weekly rate. They give us free buffet tickets which Kent likes and Sharon thinks about her weight. We like the park and the site that we always request. The site has a great view of the town and at night all the Casinos are lit up in which we can see them out the back window. We have an added feature tomorrow night, Micheal Bolton is going to be playing in the amphitheater just down the hill from our spot. The parks sites are on tiers and the amphitheater is just 3 tiers down the hill. We probably won't be able to see him but we will sure be able to hear him.
Our friends Cindy and Howie are at a RV rally in town and are staying at a RV Park across the river, they called and told us they had a space open next to them but we had already made reservations. Hopefully we will get together after we are settled.The weather here is 94 degrees and we love it. Of course we wouldn't if we didn't have air conditioning. Sharon called her girl friend Tiny(Blasius) from high school in Kimball, South Dakota who lives here is Bullhead City, just across the river, they are getting together to catch up on old times. Tonight we went to the Casino where we both spent our $20 we took along to spend and we were heading towards the door when Sharon spotted a $20 bill laying in the middle of the aisle with no one around. She came home with her $20 and I came home with empty pockets. LOL Saturday 16~~~~What a great day, we didn't have to get up and drive somewhere, we could drink coffee and watch TV in our PJ's. Sharon worked on the blog, and Kent did the laundry. It really got hot here early, Sharon went to Mass at the Riverside casino at 4:00PM and we went out for dinner afterwards and then we headed home to watch TV and to listen to the Michael Bolton concert outside of our trailer. It is so loud, I am glad we are this far away, it is perfect listen to from our place.
