The last two days have been hotter than we expected and we have had to resort to spending time with Maggie at the river. She was so hot she would beg to go for a walk as she knew it always ended with a swim in the Colorado.
Nothing seemed to cool Fred and I down. We have been going through at least two gallons of water a day, along with ice-cream drumsticks and fruit bars. Even as we complained about the heat, we looked at the forecast for the trip home and we realized we were very lucky as the temperatures at night still called for freezing. We may have to drain the 5th wheel of all the water, and after spending a winter in warmer climes that is very hard to comprehend.
Tomorrow we are driving to Laughlin, Nevada and will be staying at the Avi RV Park. We will likely see Doug, Lenore and Abbey before we start the final leg of the trip home.
As you can see from the photo, the area around Parker is beautiful and great for sightseeing and hiking. Fred took this photo from a trail just outside our park. California is just across the river.
