October
9th Cave Lake State Park to Las Vegas
I have been having some
problems posting photos on this blog, I think I have got the problem
sorted out. So hopefully you will not be seeing duplicate posting
with different headings come and go on the blog from here on out.
We had a long drive
today 250 miles to Vegas, lots more stretches of miles of straight
roads. Our 1st stop today was at Ward about 20 miles from
Cave Lake. In Ward there are furnaces that were built in the mid
1870's and are 27ft in diameter and 30ft high and were use to make
charcoal for the smelting of Ore at the nearby mines.
We arrived in Vegas
about 4:30 right in time for the peak traffic driving, fortunately it
went without any problems due to the good directions we got from the
GPS taking us to Duck Creek RV Park in southeast Vegas.

October 10th to October 13th Duck Creek RV Park Las Vegas.
We are staying at Duck Creek RV Park a well maintain clean camp and it is in the Passport America network, which offers 50% discount for members. We have really done nothing special in Vegas, did a bit of minor work on the Casita, a bit of shopping for things we couldn’t find so they probably don’t exist. We have not been down to the famous strip, went there many years ago and didn't really enjoy the masses of people there.
