Riverside Adventure Trails - Fort Mohave, AZ - October 9, 2014

We are now moved from the overflow section to a more permanent spot. We paid the $370.00 for a month. There are not very many snow birds here as of yet. But it won't be long and this place will be filling up.

Our spot.

We have no neighbors yet.

We went over to Donna's brother's house yesterday and today. Gene is doing as well as is expected. Cyndi is bed ridden and is barely coherent. The hospice folks are keeping her comfortable with morphine and other drugs.

Cyndi's brother, Mitch, and her daughter Summer are here with her. Today we had a BBQ and friends J.P. & Nell came over.

We will be spending a lot of time over at Gene's house for the next few days. These times are kind of sad, but we are glad we are here. We really enjoy this desert climate. It was in the 90s today.

Here are some stats of the fast trip we took from Elkhart, Indiana to Fort Mohave, AZ.

Cost of camping for the 5 nights - $50.51

Miles driven each day  - 414, 295, 330, 192, 315, and 495

Cost of diesel fuel  -  $615.78 - and arrived with a half a tank

From IN, we drove through and spent the night in MO, KS, OK, TX, NM and into AZ

Way too fast of a pace. Must slow down.... and smell the roses...

We will be back that direction soon enough.
