Bullhead City to Lake Havasu City and meeting up with more RV friends along the way

Where are we today
clic on a pic to enlarge it
        Much cooler today in Bullhead City, and very windy, so time get outta here. Taking our time this morning only have 66 miles to go today, so not in a big hurry. I noticed on line that friend of ours from British Columbia Canada and right is our way to  Lake Havasu today.
another plane taking off this morning
          So we sent them a message and arranged to stop in for a coffee on our way by.
a nice drive today with 30 mph tail winds
most of the way
     We left Bullhead shortly after 10 am and arrive at their place about 40 minutes later just south of Needles California. Pirate Cove resort. A wonderful park but not very buy there.
    We have not seen them for a couple years and was so nice that we were able to meet up again. Such a small world.
Suzie, Ginette and Rene
        We enjoyed some lively conversation catching up, (we follow each others blogs and Facebook postings). Coffee and a wonderful carrot pumpkin loaf that Ginette had made.
        They are avid motorcycle people and transport their Harley behind their 5th wheel on a swivel wheel carrier, very unique and sure works great for them.
      After catching  up they gave us a wonderful tour of this park, some very amazing campsites here right on the Colorado river.
lot that campsite
then a look at the beach
would be wonderful it it was
 not so windy
some amazing campsites
     Well our time ran out gotta move on down the road.  A bit further we entered back into Arizona. I-95 took us from Nevada, to Arizona, to California and back into Arizona again, time changes like crazy.
back into Arizona
     We are meeting up with good friends George and Roseanne. Camp out at their place for a few days. They have a wonderful property in Lake Havasu City and room for a couple RV friends. We met them a few years ago and this past summer at Rock Glen Resort on Ontario. We were invited to come by here anytime. So we took them up on the offer. Great to catch up with them again.
we set up with a great view overlooking
the town and the lake
what a very nice spot they have
3:30 time for Happy hour with Roseanne.
George was running errands
and we missed him
a nice sunset over the lake
      By 5 pm cooled down, time to head home and whip up a bite to eat.
    Tonight a simple fish burger on an English Muffin and a salad, nice and light, sure hit the spot.
tasty ? yup !
 only 66 relaxing miles today
              We did have a few cross winds (gusts to 35 mph) gladly we did not have far to go.
       In the area for a few days and will do some exploring places we have never seen.
       Glad that y'all dropped in for a peak.
Where have we been this Winter
