Snowbirds Trip 01/22/2012--Seligman, Arizona

Hooper called and said Jeneil is sick. So their plans to meet with us today are cancelled.

Ray and I drove the old Route 66 to Seligman and had lunch at Westside Lilo's.

Good food, good service.  

This is a fun drive.  Here are some photos of Seligman:

  

I crock potted brisket with potatoes and onions for dinner.

Snowbirds Trip 01/21/2012--Oatman Arizona

Rode in Hoopers car to Oatman, Arizona.  

There are burros everywhere here and it's kind of stinky.

Had lunch (navajo taco) and looked in all the shops.  

Heated meatloaf and mashed potatoes for dinner.

Snowbirds Trip 01/20/2012--Kingman and Hoopers

Arrived at Kingman, Arizona KOA

We met Ron and Jeneil Hooper for dinner at Plaza Bonita Mexican restaurant.  

They came and saw our trailer and visited for a while.

Snowbirds Trip 01/19/2012-Hiking Valley of Fire

Nice day in the park.  Took a couple of hikes and lots of photos.

Snowbirds Trip 01/18/2012--Valley of Fire

We had breakfast at McDonalds again and used the wifi to check email etc.  Two of the security cameras are not working, but the laundry room and front doors look fine.

We went back to camp and loaded up the trailer, dumped the tanks and headed out.

Ray filled a propane tank in Mesquite and shopped in Overton and gassed up. 

I called mom from there and she said Rhonda was there and had taken her to the foot doctor.  

We parked in number 23 at Valley of Fire State Park. We will be here 2 nights.  The rater here is $30.00 per night for a site with water and power.  No sewer.

No over the air t.v. here either.  

The campground has large sites --gravel, beautiful views of red rocks.

Snowbirds Trip 01/17/2012--We feed hotdogs to the company

We went for another hike today and just hung out in camp. 

George and Mike came to our camp for an early dinner of hot dogs.  It was too cold to eat outside so we ate in the trailer.  It was nice visiting with them and getting to know Mike.

We watched our old home movies in bed using the new blue ray player.  One of the DVDs that Ray had converted from tape didn't work so Ray is going to try to finalize it again when we get home.

Snowbirds Trip 01/16/2012--Hiking the dunes

Ralph from Montana moved out and we got some new neighbors with a small trailer.  We now have a bit of a view.  We had to dump the grey tank, so Ray left the chocks in place and tried to back in to the same spot.  It worked pretty well.  

We hiked a bit over petrified dunes and red sand.   We took a few photos (I'll see if I can find them and post them here). 

I got a text from Amanda, they went ice fishing over the weekend.  She will try to access our security cameras for us.  

We rested a few minutes and then went shopping.  

I got some more storage bins for the pantry and we bought a blue ray player. 

I made tacos for dinner.
