Crazy

Lake Havasu was just 180 miles mostly south from the Grand Canyon. A waterfront site (water & electric) at the Crazy Horse RV Park was reserved for the next 4 nights!

The temps were in the 70s as the lake came into view when the Smitanic reached the crest of the desert hills revealing the entire valley.


The park was on a small island over the London Bridge in the heart of the town. It had a very tropical feel, complete with lots of sand and palm trees. Set up was easy in the large pull thru site with a concrete pad. Beverages were poured as the travelers were amazed by the grandeur of a colorful sunset. 


The next morning a bit of Pickleball practice was in order on the single lightly used court near the pool. Later, Kevin met lady in jacuzzi that just got off a 5.5 mo on AT solo. Back at the site several neighbors were from Minnesota and were snow birds who have been wintering at the park for years. RVers are a very interesting breed and always have surprising stories and past lives.

Temp continued to be pleasant allowing for windows to be open all night & the selected attire for the day was shorts and sleeveless tops.

There were quite a few Island-like restaurants & tiki bars lining the various marinas around the island. Lunch was enjoyed while gazing at the pricey selection of floating vessels. One can dream!


The next day a boat was rented for the day. First was a tour north thru mini Grand Canyon to i40 then back to explore some of the coves on the south end of the lake. 

Coves were everywhere. Some were very private while others were like cannons where it was told that the brave would jump off rock ledges into the water! None of that was observed on this lightly traveled weekday outing, but one could imagine it happening on a warm holiday weekend!

Kevin & Theresa agreed a return stay is a must to explore biking, hiking and paddle boarding in the relaxing lifestyle & perfect temps.
