We have travelled quickly from Oak Creek Canyon to our final destination. Travelling through Arizona was spectacular, especially the drop from Prescott to Congress, which was similar to the Mokee Dugway, but at least the road was paved. We drove on through Quartzite (ate there, but the poor woman could not cook a steak) and then dropped into California and found a lovely County Park on the banks of the Colorado, in Blythe (Mayflower County Park). After an overnight stay we got permission to wash the trailer, ashing it with the muddy waters of the Colorado. We then set out on the last leg to get to the KOA in Banning. We will stay here for a week and then put the trailer into storage here.
The gas prices went from $3.69 to $4.29 when we changed state and the weather has been abysmal, storm on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday (very windy, some rain, but temperature below 60 all the time.
No More pictures I am afraid as I knocked the camera off the table and it seems to have stopped working - permanently.
In Brief
After a brief vacation in Florida, visiting friends, we collected the trailer in Dallas and then headed North to Guthrie, OK, from there we followed Route 66 West. We spent time seeing many of the natural wonders of the South West as well as finding out more about the Native American culture of the area. We flew back from Los Angeles on May 24th.
