I LOVE A RAINY NIGHT

Mar 8/10

We had a relaxing Sunday and took a short trip to Camping World after church.  We scoped out new lounge chairs for those sunny days in the desert but only bought a few essential items this time.

It started raining in the afternoon and proceeded to rain hard for hours well into the night.  The satellite image showed a big rain cell from Lake Havasu City to Las Vegas but not so much outside of that area.  We were planning to move on Monday morning but decided that we didn’t want to pack up wet things so we paid for another night.

We had time to get caught up with laundry, grocery shopping and chores in the morning and headed out to the Hoover Dam for a sightseeing trip in the afternoon.  We were there 22 years ago and were amazed at the changes in the area with a new visitor centre.

They are building a new highway and a bypass bridge beside the dam and it was even more impressive than the dam.

It was really busy at the dam and the traffic was very slow.  Glad that we don’t plan to tow the trailer on that section of highway.  We are heading out to Quartzsite, Arizona tomorrow and will take US 95 that dips into California and then back into Arizona.  It is supposed to be warmer there.
