Lake Havasu, AZ. June 21-24 2018

The first thing we ever towed with the RV was our boat heading to Lake Havasu Arizona to see what all the hype was about! We went with John and Craig so we had plenty of help if we needed it. I launched the boat with the RV and was a little nervous but all went well. The Islander is a very nice park. It has docks for the boats at an extra charge but none were available so we beached them. It was 115 degrees there when we arrived. The RV only cooled off after the sun went down…even with an extra portable AC unit we brought. I’m thinking Fall is a better time to go.

Sandy, Dee, Beth, and Ilia joined us and we met up with some more friends while there. Beth and Ilia are retired Navy and helped me tremendously with my nervousness at going fast. Lake Havasu is wide open and long like a river so there’s a lot of competition going on…Men! Lots of fun though!

It was hot as heck that weekend so the night cruises were so nice.

This was our view all the way there and back…nice to be able to check and make sure the boat was still there LOL. The AC in the cab quit working on the way home with 3 hours to go. That was miserable but luckily it was an easy and cheap fix…just a vacuum hose that came loose. Javi’s RV repair fixed it and showed us how to fix it in the future. They charged $30 and gave us something to keep vermin out of the engine. Great RV repair place!

French Camp at Tom’s Place Eastern Sierras – Memorial Weekend 2018

We camped with Craig and John and Nikki, Elliott, Brody and Grace at French Camp again this year.  Our 3rd year in a row.  The weather and scenery were as wonderful as ever.  Not to mention the company!

I finally bought my basket at the flea market associated with Mule days and I love it.  I use it in the RV and on the boat all the time. 

Lucy loved camping and playing in the water when she wasn’t relaxing by the fire or in the RV.  Love my Family and Friends!
