On the road - In Arizona now.

We are on our way. Finally got everything together and left home at 9:00. Just a normal street in Vegas filled with orange barrels and cones.
Boy would I love to have the orange cone business that sells them to Vegas. You can’t go anywhere without finding them.
Not a whole lot of scenery in the southern Nevada area. 

Except of course when you have to slow down from 65 to 25 within a few feet. Searchlight of course.
And here is the enforcer. They must make a fortune in tickets there.
The road - 95 – is good until you cross into California. Then it goes from 4 lanes divided to two narrow lanes with a drop off from the asphalt to the dirt shoulder. We call this section the Dips and Donuts section [Do Not Pass]. Lots of don’t drive through if flooded. Glad it was a dry day.
On into Arizona.
Just a normal drive, weather remained kind of cool with no wind. Stopped for diesel in Arizona at a Flying J at $2.309. Sure better than a couple of years ago. Just a peak at the beautiful blue Colorado River water.
We are stopped for the night at the Split Rail RV Park. Long pull throughs, level gravel, 30 amps, WiFi and only $20 a night. Only 219 miles and we’re already in AZ  Last year it took us over 1600 miles to get to AZ. 
Not sure how far we'll get tomorrow.
