Summer Vacation 2009 Day 6

Wednesday, 9-23-2009
Left at 7:30 for Twin Falls, Idaho. Stopped at one of the rest stop and had our breakfast sandwich. Arrived in Twin Falls at 11:30. Didn't feel like going anywhere.It was hot when we arrived that we have to turn the AC again.
I gave Earl a haircut and did our laundry.
Had chicken bake for dinner.Walked around the area. Nothing exciting to do so just stayed at the park.
The canyon where Evil Knievel tried to jump many years ago is just few miles from where were at.
Our Route 66 sign broke while I was moving my chair forward. Glass all over the place. I end up cleaning the inside of the RV make sure there are'nt any broken glasses all over.

Another road trip. Left @8:00 and headed to Brigham City. Arrived @1:30pm at Koa. First stopped at Flying J gas station and filled up the RV. So far this is the cheapest one only $68.00 for 23 gallons of diesel. Stopped by their market and bought some fried chicken wings, salami and milk.

After we settled in we went for a walk and watch the farmer mow hay.

Earl had some chili with sausage and I had some noodles for dinner.

After dinner took shower and started blogging.

No cable at this RV Park so just played game in our computer.

Woke up at 7:00 and the furnace was on. It was cold when Earl woke up that he turned the heater on. Extreme from Vegas. AC in Vegas furnace in Utah.

Had breakfast @ 8:00. I fixed corned beef hash,eggs and toast.

Left @ 9:00 for Bryce Canyon. It's 73 miles from where we were staying. Arrived there at 10:15. It cost $25 for entrance fee and it's good for 7 days in any national park. There are several view points where you can stop to view the magnificent canyon.

Another traveling day. Earl was up again very early for his walk. I woke up at 7:00 and started to get ready for another day on the road. Earl unhooked the utilities and hooked the car up. Left the Vegas KOA RV Park at 8:00 headed for Beaver,Utah. Before parking the RV at the KOA park we gassed the RV at Flying J gas station($78)

Parked the RV hooked up the utilities and settled down. The weather is not as hot as Vegas. It's a lot cooler but very windy. Gusty winds at times.

Fixed dinner at 3pm Connie style: rice,canned meat and microwable beans. Had grapes for dessert.

Summer Vacation 2009 Day2

Saturday, 9-19-2009
Still in Vegas. Earl got up at 6:00 and went for his walk. Locked himself out of the RV. Waited for an hour before he started knocking where I was sleeping. Woke up to let him in. Went back to sleep and didn't wake up till 10:00. Earl called his mom and chatted for awhile and he also called the next RV Park where we gonna stay in Utah.
Checked my e-mail and skyped with my niece Betty in France. We skyped for almost 30 minutes. After we skyped with her we went to the fashion show mall at the strip. Had lunch at their food court. Had KFC for lunch. Bought some clothes at Chicos and had light coffee frapuccino at Starbuck. Stayed at the mall till 3:15. From there we went to mass at the Guardian Angel Cathedral Church.
From church we went back to the RV and fixed dinner. Had chicken-spinach sausage and pickled asparagus. After dinner we went to the casino and played slots. I had $8 for gambling money and Earl had a whopping $3 for gambling money. We are really big gamblers. Played the penny slot machine and when it took my $6 I quit the penny machine. I decided to spend the remaining $2 in a nickel machine. It took 3 spins and won 500 nickels. I quit after that. I was $16 ahead when we left. That's all the gambling we did in Vegas. By the way Earl lost his $3.
So happy with my winnings.

Vacation in September/October

Friday, September 18,2009

Got up at 6am.We are planning to leave by 7am but by the time we got the motorhome ready it was 8am when we left. Hooked up our little car and way we went.

Our 1st stop is Las Vegas .We had a reservation at KOA just next to Circus Circus. Arrived at Koa at 2pm. The pull through wasn't long enough so we have to unhook the car from the RV which Earl didn't want to do. It's a hassle.

Still hot in Las Vegas. The heat sure made me so sleepy. Our cat was getting sleepy too. As soon as we setlled in I took a nap and so is our cat and boy by the time I woke up it was 7pm. My night was over it's time to party. We decided to eat out and can't decide where to eat so we end up going to Subway. It's better for us anyway. The buffet dinner was too much for someone who is diabetic. Walked around the casino. Didn't play just walked around and watched people lose their money.

Went back to the rig and relaxed, took a shower, played solitaire in computer and went to bed.
