Yesterday I drove the motorhome the 90 miles from Parker to Bullhead City, Arizona. Mary continues to be overwhelmed with personal business. I am now not expecting to see her again until I arrive at her home in Murphys, California about the third week in April. It’s just the way things are and we just have to deal with it.

Needles has apparently one homeless person…It’s really hard to imagine this guy’s life…
Once again I cross the Colorado River…this time back into Arizona…
About 20 miles later I parked in the rear of friendly VFW Post #10005 where they provided me with an electrical hookup…
Here’s the usual dinette window photo…
