Blowin' in the Wind...AGAIN

As we head home from  a great visit in Nevada with our family we decide to spend one last weekend to "de-compress" and get used to the idea that we have to return to the real world. Our original plan was to go to Laughlin or Valley of Fire for this but because of the heat we decided to go to Palm Desert ...which believe it or not...was COOLER than Laughlin or Valley of Fire!  We spent 2 days in Henderson and visited the Hoover Dam, went out for dinner and just relaxed.  We took a new route down to Ca from Nevada and it was a nice change.  Hwy 95 down through Boulder City, Searchlight and into Amboy and  Desert Hot Springs. ....a nice 2 lane road and different scenery from the boring I15 slug to Vegas. Here in Desert HOt Springs (the METH capital of the world) we are rocking and rolling in our 2nd day of crazy winds at the Sands RV Resort. But at least it keeps it from feeling  even hotter than it really is!  It was de ja vu last night as we rocked from side to side all night long much like being in Catalina on the boat only without the noise of the rigging clanking against the mast. We will head for the pool today and nap and read and talk about how great our trip really has been.  There's a great dog park in this RV Resort and Rufus had fun playing and running thru the sprinklers last night.
