Leaving Vegas
We’ve been here for over a month and a half, much longer than we usually stay at one place, but now Tony is nicely healed, our motorhome is super clean and waxed, lots of little maintenance projects are finished and we had a good time visiting with our daughter and old and new RVing friends. :- )
Our original plans were to drive along Route 66 from Santa Monica pier to Chicago but with hot weather coming and a planned vacation visit with family, that’s been put on hold – maybe in the fall? So we’re heading across southern Utah, through the beautiful National Parks and red rock country, over to northern New Mexico and up to Colorado high country for the summer.
Northshore Road, through Lake Mead NRA, is very scenic, a much nicer route for traveling towards Utah than I-15. The picnic areas at Redstone and Rodgers Spring have long parking spaces, accessible toilets, short paved trails to the tables and longer hikes for able bodied visitors. Both are worth a stop.

Glad Tony is feeling better and you can get back on the road before Vegas turns into a furnace. The itch must be overwhelming, by now!
ReplyDeleteWe were loving Las Vegas Bay campground but it's definitely time for moving along! Plans may be changing a little again. The big cold front has brought snow into the higher elevations...hmm northern Arizona looks nice,lol!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a good time too!
