We drove 256 miles yesterday and dealt with this temperature change within 5 hours. I can’t remember when in the past 10 years that we have arrived to this heat. Very welcoming. So very very happy to be back at the Las Vegas RV Resort. To me this means that the vacation can officially start. Of course we have last minute shopping to do to be prepared for Mexico.
This is the first time that the girls have shared a bed while we are driving on this trip. Love to see it. Sorry but I am not taking the time to lighten the photo so you can clearly see them. I am working hard to keep up with our travels for the blog and in this case some photo editing is not happening.
As well we are quite concerned that the RV dash air is not doing its job. Glad that we were able to test it. Cool but not cold and in the few hours we used it, the air became warmer bit by bit. That will be dealt with Tuesday. Love mobile businesses.
Stopped almost halfway between Ely and Vegas for a photo break.
The girls are staying real close this trip.
Once we arrived here in Las Vegas and I went to step out of the RV to drive the car to our reserved site, I had a huge realization. This was the first time that I have been outside of the RV since we left home last Monday 😳 Just too much to do with all the repair phone calls etc that I never even got out for a wee walk.
As we were approaching our exit from the freeway the lanes were all merged into only two. Certainly an interesting crush of vehicles merging.
Most of my Amazon orders had come in and we needed to get them out of the park office.
The girls seemed to like their new bed.
And then I crashed! Apparently Ciela joined me. Great nap.
I wanted to show you my technical travel station. My iPhone took the photo.
A wee bit of something other that the topic. Thursday morning( yesterday ) I went to put on my underwear when I spied a crawling stink bug inside. YUCK YUCK YUCK! We had already found two crawling around the ceiling. Someone kept telling some else that they should keep the RV door closed while loading. The second someone said it was not necessary 🙁 What was really funny is that the day prior, Colin had joked about putting one in my clothing 😛 I aways tell people that thoughts are things, so be careful.
Love this cartoon. Anyone disagree??
I would love to have this in my home.
Thanks for all of your comments. It really fuels me to write the next post. Nice the hear from you Creigh. I agree, such a wonderful drive and to be able to enjoy the vista. It is best seen with snow on the mountains.
I’m happy to hear you have arrived in Las Vegas safe and sound. Hopefully you and Colin find a day to just rest and enjoy a couple of carefree hours. Enjoy the warmth.
Nothing but blue skies waiting for you…
So sorry to hear about all the issues with RV and Toad. I have for years used tire pressure system for RV and toad. Towing a vehicle behind a big diesel RV is hard to tell the vehicle is even behind you, visually is only way. To many stories from friends and family of blowouts from many different reasons. My opinion is that the tire pressure warning systems is a cheap insurance from preventing this type of accident. Without a Good Samaritan you would have kept towing down the road. There are different brands to use, you can purchase on Amazon. Good luck with the rest of your trip. We will be heading south in December to LDM. Adios amigos.
This is the first year we have had stink bugs travel with us, I found two and they are both gone now! I love the picture of the motorhome at your photo stop, great job and I also love the tree bookcase. My dad would have built that if he was still here.
Don’t forget to go to the Hole in the Wall for wine and pasta! Glad to see you arrived safe and sound. We head out on Monday. 2 more sleeps!
I’m just a wee bit jealous of your temperature, here in Connecticut it is in the 40s-50s F. Truly I enjoy 70-80s except when I’m gardening then 55-60 F. Love the wiring of the brain and bookshelves! Of course your family is the best! Enjoy the journey and I can’t wait to see the magic you and Colin will create in your new blank canvas!
