Pictures from Parker

We saw these wonderful pyrotechnics coming from Lake Havasu.

An afternoon of fast boats on the Colorado River.




Riley doesn't nearly as fast as the boats but had a great time fetching sticks and balls!

We are now in Erenberg, AZ and have a very nice campsite on the banks of the Colorado River. Nice weather in the 70's . We are off to Palm Desert on Friday for about a week. Hope the weather holds. We will post more as we go.

Sunshine and Blue Sky!!!!

Hi All, It is a beautiful day in Arizona, Lee took me to breakfast for Valentines day and of course we ate more than usual. Life is good!!!! Saturday we went into Lake Havasu and watched the Pyrotechnic dispays in Sarah Park. This was better than 4th of July. I will post pictures later. It is going to be around 75 today and Lee thinks he has died and gone to heaven!!! Riley is enjoying the Colorado River and swimming. The water is a little cold for Lee and me. Tomorrow we will be heading south. Wishing you all well, Lee, Sheri and the Yellow Dog!!!

Arizona

Hi All, It seems like it has been forever since I have written. We have been on the road since the 13th of Jan. It has been quite an adventure. We arrived in Quartzsite on the 16th of Jan. and spent 2 weeks on the desert dry camping. You know how I love the comforts of home, but we made it. A couple of days would be just fine for me, 2 weeks is a little too long. Lee and Riley loved the desert. Below you will be able to see our home away from home. We did have some real strong winds, 75 mph on evening and lots of rain. Thank goodness that we had picked a high spot so the water could run abound us. Leaving the desert we went up to Laughlin, Nevada for3 days and I lost all of $4. (much to the thrill of my husband). We are in Parker, AZ now for about two weeks and are enjoying the sun, bike riding and the Parker 425 mile cross country races. As you can see from the pictures below. The only difference between men and boys is the price of their toys. News from the home front. Clint and Tanya are having a baby girl in June. As a nana I am soo pleased. We talked to Shannon and the boys this morning and she said Porter is using the big boy potty. They grow up so fast!!! Well, that's about all for now. Take care and enjoy the day!

During this race you get right up front and personal with the trucks


We were very lucky that their had been a lot of rain otherwise this would have been very dusty.






We had a humming bird feeder outside the camper window and had lots of customers!
Beautiful sunset and sunrises out here.



This is what it looked like during the rain storm. Lee,and I coming back from a ride to the city.

Our home away from home.
