       When I got up this morning about 4 am the temp was 28f hmm cold ! Here  at the Walmart in Cedar City Utah. Mind you the elevation was over 5,200 ft . But in no time our Mr Heater  had us toasty warm.
       Coffees and computing done a walkabout the Walmart for a few things then as the sun came up Suzie ready to go so we secure the coach and on the road by 8:30. Heading south.

frosty windshield on the car

good byeWalmart

       Now for the next while we heading down hill, and that's good. Wide open desert views.

crossed state line to Arizona for  28 miles

But back into the mountains again

     The views here are amazing, actually mind boggling. These huge mountains and think about it. How did they make these roads? By 10 am it was getting very warm so we now into shorts and t-shirts.

Then we crossed into Nevada

wonderful bridgework

more nice open road

        Coming into Las Vegas a slow down for about 20 minutes, no problem we in our house, facilities right here. An accident, tractor trailer made a huge mess and one lane closed.

some Las vegas buildings

      We have no need to stop here in Vegas, been there, done that a few years ago. Had to see it then but we don't need to go back.

      Next heading to Parhump Nevada only another 60 miles. But is a long up hill drive. And our gas coach does not like uphill climbs especially with the higher temperatures. Was about 80 f. Not too far along we down to 30 mph and starting to overheat a bit. Construction zone but we had a pull off. Disconnected the car and Suzie drove the car behind me for the next 45 minutes. Still had to pull over once more to cool down the coach. Even with heater going full blast and of course no A/C going.

we pulled over here and disconnected the car

     We arrived at ur destination at 2:30pm (1:30pm local time) checked in, had lunch and all setup up. What a beautiful resort. We like our free camping (part of our membership) we only here 7 days but we have full hookups including free wifi (that is not too bad). Temperature here 84f and sunny. Now that is what we are looking for. 

you know it is warm when Suzie
is outside in shorts, in the shade

     I did a nice walkabout checking out some of the park and was very impressed so much to see and do in this area  as well. Maybe should stay for 2 weeks? No overnight fees for us.

by the covered pool

nice spa

billiard room

retractable roof on the heated pool

love the cactus

Palm trees too

    That is enough for today, relax in the shade and get some readying time done. I have been deprived. So nice to be at 2,500 ft above sea level now compared to this morning at 5,200 ft so much warmer, and in a week or two much lower elevation and more warm temps.

love the cloudless blue skies

        While we  were reading the welcoming committee stopped by to chat and give us some tips pf things to see in the area. What a nice welcome here.  
        Then as usual, time for supper, grill a couple boneless, skinless chicken breasts that I marinated in spices and Olive oil. Done on the grill mat. that way they do not dry out. Still moist and tender.

then a salad and we are good for the day

       Nice to get off the road for a bit and relax and full hookups a bonus as well.

       Our day was wonderful and hope yours was too. We sure will enjoy this warm sunny weather.

       Thanks for stopping by.
