Larry and Patsy, your pictures are just awesome.. We cannot tell you how much we wish we were with you on this journey. We hope we are part of this trip next year!! Last year in Kingman, Arizona, there was a Blue Beacon truck wash that did a really nice wash job for us. I can't remember which truck stop it was, but it may be a Petro. Then that drive going into Vegas over the bridge at Hoover Dam was just awesome. Good luck in Vegas.. Thanks so much for all your posts.. So good for us to relive that beautiful scenery.

Since you have some time to kill before Vegas. Why not come on over to Bakersfield this weekend. Lots of Nostalgia cars.

Joe and Alice, We are in Kingman now getting fuel and I can see the Blue Beacon from here. And boy, does our motorhome and trailer need cleaning up! So after fuel and a wash job, we are on our way again.

Hey Rod, we have reservations at the Rio for this weekend. I don't think I will tell Larry about Bakersfield!

Larry & Patsy,

Thanks for the great travel log of the USA. You have really made me want to take a road trip to see our beautiful country. Hope you have good luck in Vegas, both at the track and tables if you indulge. Look forward to more pictures later. Have safe travels.

Thanks Again.
Butch

Larry, if you like prime rib, do yourself a favor and go to Jerrys Nugget on Las Vegas blvd. Ask any of the locals for directions. You won't believe the size and how good it is, plus very reasonable. And here I am eating hamburger LOL

We are here in Las Vegas! We arrived Wednesday afternoon and after turning around in the parking lot of the drag strip, we got parked over by the Nascar track in the holding area. They say we will be here until probably Monday and then we will go to another holding area by the drag strip, then park on Tuesday. Already here are Buggs and Bob Dennis, Mike and Paula Cotten, Phil Montheith, and 10 John Force rigs and several other pro teams with a leftover mix of IRL rigs and the big TV. The motorhome performed flawlessly after we had the jake brake re-programmed. We went down a 6% grade for 6 miles and never hit the brakes or exceded the speed limit.

We went downtown with Mike and Paula last night so I didn't get anything posted, but here are a few shots of the trip from Williams, AZ to Vegas. As usual there were all sorts of amazing scenery on the way that pictures don't do justice for. Here are a few:
