Hey Everybody,
Here we are at The Oasis RV Park in Las Vegas! Besides the title being the title of a song, it is also the name of an apartment complex Elaine Maxwell and I lived in Marietta on Powers Ferry Road. We even had a lovely mural on our wall of a couple walking into the sunset!
We got the elusive vacum creating, gas vapor removing thingmajig fixed and were on the road by noon. A pretty uneventful trip, just HOT! And I am sweating, so forget this dry heat thing! I can't get over the mountainous terrain followed by wide valleys which seem to go on forever. I saw several different kinds of cacti that I hadn't seen so far. We also saw near Barstow, California a lot of mining of some mineral. It looked very white. I vaguely remember in my 4th grade social studies curriculum that there was mining in that area for the stuff that was used in Borax (maybe bauxite??). Help me out, Mrs. Fullington!
This is such a nice resort, we may stay here 2 days to enjoy the casinos, I mean scenery!
Happy Camping!
