Vegas Visit

Our trip from Kingman to Vegas was uneventful. The only delay was driving through the construction zone that extends 20 miles south from the Hoover Dam on Hwy 93. We waited briefly in line for a security check before driving over the dam. We arrived at Roadrunner RV Park shortly after noon. It's quite a change from the wilderness scenery of our most recent campsite. In fact, it's pretty much a parking lot, but it is very convenient for visiting Jeff.

We went over to Jeff's condo around 6 p.m. and met his new girlfriend, Tiffinie. She is staying with him temporarily, having just moved to Las Vegas from her home in Indianapolis. We also got to meet her Persian cat and Papillon puppy, who actually get along quite well with Jeff's dog, Pink. Pink is clearly getting up in years, but he still enjoys some attention and petting.

We went to the Elephant Bar for dinner--a combined belated celebration of Jeff's birthday (March 23) and Ken's (May 14). The food was good and the atmosphere was conducive to a good visit.



We picked up our mail and packages that had been sent to Jeff's house--quite a little collection. We got Jeff to put the new toilet box in his Durango for delivery to our place in the morning.
