Fred/111 degrees!
Long day of driving but no traffic. Left home at 6:45 and headed out Hwy 8 towards Yuma. Couple of rest stops on the way and then the highlight- lunch in Gila Bend! I don't think much has changed in Gila Bend in a long,long time. Some new fast food joints and we opted for Dairy Queen which happened to be the last one before getting on the highway to Phoenix. Had a cheeseburger and strawberry shake and P had an apple bacon burger.
It was 108 there so we hit the road for Phoenix and arrived at oue rv park and it was 111! First hookup was the power and the ac on. Of course I printed out a trip tik for P to navigate with and our first stop was the Desert Sands rv park where their website said thT they wouldn't take any rv,s built before 1999. So screw that and I realized that I had made my reservation at the Desert Shadows rv park after I printed the trip tik, so after some consternation, we pulled out the phone and called for directions, or I should say P called. Men don't ask directions!
So we are here Nd taking a nap in the ac before we head for Scottsdale to a great Japanese Sushi restaurant that we kno about. After that a dip in the jacuzzi, shower and to bed. Getting up for an early departure to Flagstaff where we will get some altitude. Supposed to be in the 80's there. We will see so stay tuned!
