Down the Road to Arizona

We stopped moving at a snails pace and put a bunch of miles under us the last two days.  We've made it to Lake Havasu City in Arizona where it is in the 90's this week.  We've moved from snow to very hot in just two days.  We covered extra miles because there is not much to see as you travel through the Mojave Desert.


In the last few days the first snow of the season fell in the Sierras.  With the draught last years snow had all disappeared by June, so the locals were happy to see the snow back.



Stopped for lunch at a rest stop.
The further South we traveled the warmer it got.  We had worked our way out of the snow topped mountains.


We climbed back up to above 8,000 feet and then entered the high desert of eastern California.


Barren Mojave Desert.
We finished the long hot drive through the desert and we're happy to be on Lake Havasu for a few days.  We have the air conditioning cranked up and are enjoying a couple of down days.

Life is good and warm.
