About Us

My photo
We don't really know how to do a blog so be patient with us as we explore this and in time hopefully you will enjoy reading it. As we are retired now & have sold our house we live in a campground for the summer and now we are going to travel to find a place to call home for the winter months. This blog is about our travels in our quest to find that place we can call home for the winter. We will enjoy having you along with us on our travels.

2010-11-03 Day 5 At Wayne & Donna's

Today we took the truck in to have new tires put on it. While the truck was being done we went to the Palace Buffet and had lunch. After we ate we went for a bike ride up the Hualapai Mountains. Came back into Kingman on Rt 66 to pick up the truck.


One of the few times without a helmet for Bonnie.

 Wayne & Donna said they wanted to live on this road because it's DW Ranch Rd.

 We weren't expecting to see an orchard in the desert.

 How about now?

It's about 22 miles from Wayne & Donna's to Kingman.

 Here's the Hospital that you can see from I40 but you can't get to it from here. You have to go all the way into Kingman and come around the back to get to it.
