We started our 2019 camping trip on Saturday, Oct. 26. I didn’t realize that we hadn’t used the camper
since Dec 2018, so it was a bit of an adjustment to drive, especially after driving my Bolt!

Our first night was spent celebrating Don’s birthday with our kids in Crestline. We left after mass and
breakfast on Sunday and drove to Yucca Valley. We found a friendly Wal-Mart, ate and slept.

On Monday we headed for Laughlin NV. We were able to get a camping spot in Riverside RV Park and
spent the night eating and sleeping! Tuesday was somewhat of a repeat as we drove to Las Vegas, got
a spot in the Main Street Casino RV Park and ate and slept! It has been a rather dull vacation so far - but
I think we both needed to get away and chill out!

Wednesday we were appalled to find that our favorite outlet mall in Vegas is now charging $7 to park.
Luckily the mall to the south does not charge for parking and has most of the same stores. So, I got my
shopping fix!

Thursday was a bust as we finally decided we must do something about the shimmying of our camper
when we were driving. We went to Wal-Mart to have the tires balanced and found that both front tires
(which Don had purchased after our last trip) were defective and starting to delaminate! So, we invested
in two more tires and traveled much more comfortably.

Thursday night we found a nice campground in Bishop and Friday we got to replenish our water and
empty our septic tank! We got to Carson City and decided to push on to Reno. Our favorite camping
spot does not take overnighters anymore, so we had to scramble around to find a Wal-Mart where
we could park.

I am sorry to be out of LA and miss all the excitement. I hope everyone is OK so far and we will find
everything back to normal when we get home, I hope I will have some more interesting news the
next time I write in this blog.
