Difference a Day Makes

Traveled about the number of hours as yesterday, but got 250 miles further.  At 7:15 we were on the road, got gas, and stopped to eat 30 miles later at a I-40 rest area.  Wanting to stay at Lake Pleasant Regional Park, part of the Maricopa County Parks and Recreation's six camping areas, I called the number just to be told that they don't take reservations on day of arrival.  They did say that there were 5 sites available, including a ADA site, but we should hurry.  Well, being 7 hours away, hurry just isn't going to cut it.  30 miles out I called again, and all 5 sites, plus one more, were available...40 minutes later we registered for the ADA site.

Travel went well, light to medium traffic, but we had to fight the wind for a good hour.  We took some pics, but that will need to wait for another day.

  1. Glad you are out of the snow. I heard it's freezing everywhere across the U.S. Watch out for those icy roads.

    1. Last two days of travel have been great, but very COLD at night, that's for sure.
