Hung out in the camper this morning until about 0930. As usual we just watched the temps climb. They set a new record today for the high temp, 117 deg, the old record was 116 in 1943!
We took a drive (as the AC in the truck works fine) through old Kingman and north to Hoover Dam.
Here's a RT 66 sign in Kingman.
This is a view of the Colorado River from a wayside viewing area.
Another pic of the Colorado.
We still can't get over how wild these mountains look.
Headed down toward Lake Mead.
And here's the first view of Lake Mead.
The next few pics are of the Hoover Dam. They have totally remodeled the entire place from what we remember 35 years ago.
We stopped for lunch at this joint about half way between Hoover Dam and Kingman on RT 93.
Back at the camper we watched some TV and sweltered. We can't wait for tomorrow as the temps in Flagstaff and only in the 80s during the day and 50s at night.
stay cool guys....love ya
