1. Going thru New Mexico

We have been here in Nevada for awhile now. We just got to a place where the internet would work right. We are in Laughlin, NV and when you go across the Colorado River you are in Arizona. So just to go shopping you will be in 2 different states. The river is the real jewel here. It is really pretty and the casinos are right along the river. We are staying out of town aways. We are at the KOA which is next door to the AVI Indian casino. So the place we are staying is basically an Indian reservation.

We were not sure what we were going to do. So, we stopped here to regroup while waiting for some other things to come thru. David decided to go over to the casino and see if he could get a short time job. They hired him on the spot as a security guard so I guess we'll be here until something else comes thru or we get itchy feet. He figures he can work enough to pay for new truck tires when we need them.

I'm going to try to get home for awhile to visit family and pick up a few things.

Molly went to the beauty parlor today and got a hair cut, bath, nails and teeth brushed. She wasn't happy when we picked her up. She thinks we tricked her but she sure looks pretty.

The desert isn't what you would call Paradise, the sunrise and sunsets are different but they have their beautiful times too when they hit against the mountains. So, goodby from a place that's almost Paradise.
