Lake Havasu/Apache Junction
Well, it’s really Dec. 2 and we got into the Superstition
Buttes Park on December 1! I am really
lagging on getting the last of our blog done.
I don’t know if I’m just plain wore out, or if I hate to see it
end! It’s been a great trip, and we are
glad we were able to do it, without any problems. I guess I didn't post much of anything on our two day stay in Pahrump, which was 'interesting'. It's a very strung out town, and for a desert town, it was quite clean and neat. Every campground is connected to a casino in that town! We did some geo-caching in Pahrump on Friday to gain our Nevada souvenir, so we were glad about that. On Saturday, we arrived in Lake Havasu for an
overnight, and to see the London Bridge.
We watched the Badger football game until we couldn’t stand to watch it
anymore, as the team didn't show up to play! We left at the end of the third quarter to go downtown to see the London
Bridge, as it is something we have wanted to see
ever since we have been coming to AZ. It
is a fabulous bridge, but we didn’t care for the ‘carnival type things’ going
on around that area. It's definitely a tourist town. If you don’t know
the background of the bridge, this is a good website to go to and read about
it.
So,
with that being satisfied, we were ready to leave Lake Havasu on Sunday. The drive from Lake Havasu to Parker is beautiful, with the mountains and the Colorado River, it made for a
very pleasant drive. We arrived at our
park at noon on Sunday, and it will take us all week to get settled in! It feels good to be back in The Valley, and
we’ll be here until May 1, 2014. This
ends our blog, and we are glad to hear that so many of you have ‘traveled with
us’! We have no regrets and feel very
enriched with all that we have seen and learned on this trip.
