North Las Vegas to Salome, AZ.......4th & 5th April......

Back on the road, this time heading south from Las Vegas to Laughlin, NV....
We were one of the few RVs heading south, the "snowbirds" were all migrating north and home for the summer.....
After leaving Las Vegas City and the traffic it's a nice easy drive down US95 south.....oh dear more downhill !!!! 
After a night stop at Laughlin we are now on route to our final campsite of this trip at Salome, AZ. ....
This pic doesn't really do the colours justice but all along our route is a mass of yellow, the spring colours in the desert on this trip have really been fantastic....
Nice straight roads across the desert...rather like a Disney ride at times !!!
The railroad bridge over The Colorado River....today we went from Nevada into California  then over the river into Arizona....we are now on Mountain Time but still 8 hours behind England as Arizona do not change for daylight savings...all very confusing !!!
Well there's a thing a water tower for my last post of this trip :)
The sun is shining the spring colours are fabulous and we are singing along to The Gambler  on Willie's Roadhouse.....this brought back great memories of driving into Dawson City on our coach tour of Alaska/Yukon and the whole coach knowing all of the words !!!
Camp Harris at Desert Vista, Salome.....we stayed here last November  and it's a perfect campsite to end our trip and pack up our home on wheels ready for storage at Surprise, Phoenix....we even had time to enjoy the 90 degree temperatures and head to the pool...
Well folks that's it for this trip it's over and out from The Happy Campers, we love sharing our adventures with you all and do thank you for your support and comments......
All being well we shall return to this side of the pond early June for the best part of 4 months on  a Big Road Trip to the Northern States.......
