We returned to So Cal to attend a wedding of a very good friend. It was a beautiful ceremony and a beautiful day. So glad we were invited and able to attend.
With nothing to do especially until the next wedding in mid September, we opted to visit, of all places, Bullhead City AZ. Why you might ask? Well me too! The answer – money of course and well, to visit the parental units and maybe even help. If you thought perhaps to enjoy the weather, you should know better than that. This was the temp when in the car parked in a car port.
There were a few mornings that were only low 80’s so we would sit outside with our coffee. Views weren’t too bad.
Sadie enjoyed our visits to the dog park in the morning and then walking down into the river!
There were a few thunderstorms later in the month.
We parked our RV in a newly erected garage that could store our RV and another RV of the same size while allowing us to both open up all the slides and plug in power. We set the a/c at 85 figuring it would keep things somewhat cool and those things we did worry about were placed into the frig or taken with us. We did go and do some work inside the rv too – had to turn the a/c down to 70’s of course! But we insulated behind everything that had a wall with outside exposure – protecting from heat and cold.
We stayed with Bud & Kay at the house. I organized and helped Kay while Rob did what he could to aid his dad with the rental repairs.
There was a lot going on with the Property Mgmt getting changed and issues with the repairs so it was good for us to be there.
Mid September it was back to the previous parking area in CA. First there was a team meeting for Ape Eater Racing. Members came in from Napa and UT!
The young couple’s wedding was a fun ceremony and reception. Another fun day. Soon after it was a drive back to AZ to pick up the rest of our belongings to move on. We were headed to Mesa AZ and surprise some people back at Good Life while meeting some other friends. We also threw in a great dinner with our daughter’s In-laws up in Phoenix. The 2 cooks hard at work…
Our friends from TN had a son that was going to attend a school in that area, Tempe to be exact. So the 5 of them packed up into a van and have been driving across the country, visiting and exploring while making their way west.
It was truly a blessing to spend time with them all while helping find a vehicle and supplies for an apartment. Our time was over too quickly but that just means we may have to go back to see them in TN of course!
