I am now relaxing at Antelope Valley RV Park in Delta, Utah.  On the way here, I stayed a night at a truck stop.  Nights at truck stops in the past have been good, not this time, a truck with a refrigerated trailer running all night parked right next to me making it hard to get any sleep.  Anyway, I’m thinking of staying here at Antelope Valley Park for a month.  I like it here and it’s next to a city where I can get some things done.  I need to get the beast’s exhaust checked and the generator’s tail pipe fixed.  I also need to get an eye exam since I haven’t done so in a long time.

I’m on my way north, it’s starting to get hot down south.  I first stopped, for a night at a roadside turnout, south of Bumble Bee, AZ.  Then onto Bonito Campground, Coconino National Forest, dispersed camping for a night, there was a lot of traffic on dirt roads, kicking up too much dust.  Now I’m at Lees Ferry Campground NPS for 2 nights, very nice here, next to the Colorado River.
​

It sure is nice here at Desert Vista KOA Campground with full hook-ups, the guests are friendly and so is the staff.  While planning my future travels, I have noticed a lot of RPI campgrounds in Arizona have a 15 year RV age “restriction” (mine is 32 years old!).  I haven’t  been in a park that had RVs that didn’t appear to belong there because of age, so I don’t know why.  I sent off an email asking what restrictions, I’ll let you know of the response.

I’ll be moving on, soon, 4/12.  I’ve enjoyed it here in the Sonoran Desert, quiet, solitude, warm.  My BLM LTVA pass will expire 4/15 and, also, it will be getting very hot here.  I think I will start out going east through Arizona, New Mexico, and maybe even Texas!  Remember Desert Vista Campground in Salome AZ?  I have a reservation for a week there with full hook-ups, a nice way to continue my RV adventure!

​I celebrated my one year on the road, 3/5, with a cheeseburger and pitcher of beer at Emerald Cove’s Tiki bar.  I like their burgers, yummy.  Back in the desert, it rained a little yesterday and it is windy with gust of 40 mph today.  It’s still T-shirt weather, though, and so I’ll take it.
