Sorry, no pics. But we did make it to Wickenburg. Intended to dry camp, 95+ degrees changed my mind on that. We are staying at the Aztec RV Park near McD's. Lots of folks live here full-time, and lots of spots for Snowbirds. The park is probably 2/3rds empty. All the folks I have seen seem very nice. Enjoyed watching the horses in the pasture across the back fence by us...closest Indy has been near horses.
The trip was a familiar one to us, travel this way nearly every year coming or going. Impressed that the Interstate from AZ boarder to Kingman is half finished...so now you only lose your fillings for half the drive. Unfortunately Highway 93 is still full of bad spots, but that will all change when Interstate 11 is put in... don't know when that dream will see the light of day, but they have signs up.
When we got gas near Bakersfield 21 gallons cost $100...in Lake Havasu I got 20 gallons for $61. Don't see how folks in California can afford to live there...
Tomorrow we plan to see our good friend Laurie, then head out towards Payson AZ where there are a few National Forest Campgrounds we can call home for the night. We have never been in this part of Arizona before.
That was a long drive!! Yes I hear it's still pretty hot down there, but hopefully you'll be a little higher in the mountains for some cool air. Looking forward to seeing where you will stop.
