Day 21 – Trip to the Apple Store
Dar spent most of the day at an Apple store in Surprise trying to get her macbook pro fixed. She left the RV with no cash, water or gas in the car but survived the ordeal coming back without a computer. Three days ahead of her with no way to communicate to the outside world. Will she survive?
Day 19 – Route 88 The Apache Trail
The Apache Trail is officially known as Route 88 and runs eastward from Apache Junction to Roosevelt Dam where it meets up with Route 188. In between these two points we discovered an are rich in history and some incredibly terrifying roads. Starting our day with the Elvis Church and Apache Trail Museum, we moved on to Goldfield and toured the home made ghost town where we watched an old west shootout. Tortilla Flat is located where the pavement ends and the 22 miles of gravel begins. We stopped for lunch at the famous Superstition Saloon where Rob saddled up to the bar before trying their chili. The next 2 hours on gravel road and down Fish Creek Hill was about the most invigorating and terrifying thing we’ve ever done. We were never more grateful for pavement when we got to the end.
Days 12-18 – Destiny RV Park Phoenix
The week following our holidays in Phoenix was spent getting our bearings around the Destiny RV Park, finding resources, getting the BBQ working and taking full advantage of the hot tub a few hundred feet from our motorhome each night. One side trip so far, to the Apache Trail and the famous Route 88.
Day 10 – Hoover Dam
It was a short travel day today, from Pahrump Nevada to Kingman Arizona. Rob took a tour of the Hoover Dam as we crossed over it, and we spent Xmas Eve in our motorhome, a little closer to our first full on camp site in Phoenix Arizona.
