Kingman Back to Las Vegas


With our uneventful night at the Wal-Mart in Kingman where the city does not allow overnight parking behind us, it was time to head on to Las Vegas for a few nights. A few of the other RVers had already pulled out of the parking lot before we were outside getting ready to go. We had to stop first and visit with our very nice Australian neighbors.

Back to fun projects

Two couples from Australia were off to spend six months together in the United States touring. Upon arrival they purchased a motorhome and at the end of their stay, they plan to sell the Class “A” motorhome before returning to Australia. I’m certain this was the smart way to do it. They indicated they had checked into renting one and decided this was much less expensive. We swapped some information and places to visit and headed on our way. I’m sure they’ll have a very good time on their very long vacation.

The wind was really ripping as we headed out of the Kingman area but it didn’t last long. Oh, it was windy alright but once on the road it wasn’t quite as forceful as it was when we first pulled out. We had a short 100 mile drive and arrived at our destination before noon. We know we’ll have a few long days ahead of us in the next couple of weeks so these short days are supposed to make up for the ones to come.

dessybDinner was at Dessy B’s Steakhouse. Terry hadn’t been there before but I had been with the Hyder’s when he was out of town. The place certainly isn’t fancy but the food was so good that I wanted to take him there too. The salad bar is fantastic, the steak perfect and the service flawless. We liked this place.

One more repeat will be to Terrible’s Casino but not to play slots. It’ll be to repeat their buffet. With coupons in hand we’ll be able to have the best brisket ever at their buffet for about $5 each. What a deal that is!

Tuesday we’ll be on our way north towards the Rhyolite Ghost Town (maybe). That’s the plan and you know how well we stick to our plans.

See you in Rhyolite (maybe).
