Lake Havasu City, AZ

We got to Joshua Tree National Park and the road was closed for repairs! Would have been nice if they posted it on their web page! It was 100 miles around to another entrance to the park so we decided we didn't want to see cactus that bad!
We ended up in Blythe, CA right on the Colorado River - a nice RV park, even had grass - but the area is typical desert - dirt and sagebrush. It was in the 90's - can't imagine summer there. Or maybe I can, similar to Texas last July!
We drove through Quartzite, the mecca for RV'ers in the winter months because you can camp for free on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) property.  Everyone just "circles their wagons!" There are no services on this land but there are campgrounds "in town" that have hook ups. What dusty, barren land! After seeing it, I have no desire to go back - I told Roger it looks like Presidio, TX with RV's! I guess the experience is the big draw and because all sorts of after market RV vendors are there selling their wares.
We called Emerald Cove RV Resort, where we are meeting our Alfa Roadrunner group on Wednesday, to see if we could come in early and they said "no, our arrangement was for the rally time only." So, we are now in Lake Havasu City, AZ and will go to Parker, AZ tomorrow. A good chance for me to get my nails and hair done! A real city - they even have a Kirklands and a Hobby Lobby!!!
This is the location of the "London Bridge" - dismantled, brought here and reconstructed - why is a good question! We saw it at night so my pictures didn't turn out.
