FROM SUN CITY TO SIN CITY

With our trailer load of six boats we made it out of Texas. Damn, that is one big State to drive through with not much as far as scenery to look at. But then, New Mexico and Arizona isn't much better. Tuesday night we ended up staying at a rest stop in Waring, Texas. Wednesday night found us in Lordsburg, New Mexico. Thursday we made our way into Arizona with a fuel stop in Phoenix. As we left the Phoenix area we drove through Sun City. Seeing the golf carts driving through town was something to see. But then if I was retired.....wait, I am retired, but you won't see me driving around in a golf cart, at least not yet!

After Sun City we saw nothing but desert and cactus. Along Highway 93 we came upon Nothing, Arizona, population 4. From the looks of the building and the fence surrounding it, it seems even those 4 people have relocated to somewhere better.
We stayed in Kingman, Arizona Thursday night which leaves us with about 130 miles to the boat dealer Friday morning. From there we don't know what our assignment will be, but being in Sin City AKA: Las Vegas , we will make the best of it.
