We made it to Fiesta Grande finally. It seemed like a longer trip than yesterday. We lost an hour with the time change. We didn't leave until 9 am. We took hwy 40 to 95 . We turned to head to Lake Havasu City and Quartsite. We got gas when we turned to head to Lake Havasu.. paid way too much. We drove by the London Bridge in Havasu City. We went through Parker which we hadn't seen before. Just outside of Parker the warning lights came on the tire monitor. Steve pulled off and checked it out. The tire on the back dually on the inside passenger side. The valve stem was bad. We found a tire place in Parker who was able to fix it in less than a half an hour.
Back on the road we didn't take the turn to go to Quartsite so we headed down a bumpy road towards Vicksburg. From there we took hwy 10 to Hwy 85. The Phoenix cut off. We had lunch in a rest stop shortly after getting on Hwy 10. Once we hit Hwy 8 we had about 70 miles to Casa Grande. We turned in Trekell road. We got to Florence Blvd and the just as the police were closing the road for the Christmas Lights parade. They let everyone through but us. We decided to backup and turn in a parking lot. Just as we were turning into the lot the cop motioned for us to cross the road. He opened it up enough for us to get through. We went around and finally got in. The office was just closing but we were able to get checked in and parked. Unfortunately we were not able to put the back down but after we get an extension for the electrical cord we should be able to lower
The back.
The trip was about 277 miles and we pulled into the park about 4:15 PM.
We did a minimal set up which we will finish tomorrow.
We then headed out to get some dinner and gas for the truck. We ate dinner at Panda Express. Then Walmart and back to the rig for TV. We see Glenda tomorrow!
