4-19 Sunday, Where “O” Where are They???

As most folks know we don’t really plan our trips, we have an idea about where we might want to go and we kind of go from here to there until we finally get somewhere, once we have arrived Larry will start to think about where we might go next. We left Texas headed west, roamed around in New Mexico a bit, moved a bit further west to Arizona, then we moved even further west and ended up at the Pacific Ocean. Spent a few days moving up the coast watching waves, beaches and all things related. Since the motorhome will not float we could go no further, we headed a couple of hundred miles east and ended up in Kings Canyon / Sequoia National Parks (still in California). We had been there about 6 years ago but due to impending bad weather we did not stay long, this time we spent almost a week, didn’t seem that long but then again we had to drive all the way up and down the  mountain  twice to get Larry’s finger worked on. We figured we would be in California for a couple of more weeks but once again mother nature did not agree, seems it was going to start raining in the areas we wanted to see and was suppose to continue raining for the better part of a week, now many times in the past we have holed up for a few days waiting for inclement weather to move through but we did not want to be sitting around for a entire week.  Sunday morning Larry fired up the Minnie and said I think maybe Utah is where we should head. Well, let me tell ya, it is a long drive from Kings Canyon to Utah and there was no way he was driving that far in a day, so how far did we make it??? How about Las Vegas, somehow Larry found the most wonderful place to camp that is only about two blocks from the downtown casinos. OK, maybe it is not camping but it is an RV parking lot with full hookups,  showers, laundry and it is really inexpensive. I have convinced him that since we arrived late in the day and I would really like to do laundry we should spend at least two nights here. We have not been to Vegas in at least 25 years, I am so excited. Sure hope I find time to get that laundry done before he decides to leave, so many casinos and so little time.
