Hey guys...so now I am in the middle of nowhere Arizona. We are about an hour away from the Grand Canyon. So lets see some highlights of the last few days...well we were in the car for about 10 hours the other day driving from Reno all the way to Las Vegas. Along the way we blew another tire...only we didn’t know it. So when we went to stop for gas there is pretty much no tire left it has been shredded into what I’m pretty sure of a million pieces. So around 10 at night we made it to Las Vegas and got to stay at Circus Circus...which is a campground right by the strip. So we went inside to the casino...all I can say is oh my goodness LUNG CANCER!!! It is the smokiest place that I have ever been in. But we watched a show and all played a racing camel game...and I won a stuffed bear...yay me!!! Anyway, so today we were stuck at some tire place forever getting all new tires so we don’t have that little mis-hap happen again...hehehe. So then we were in the car for about four hours but a little big highlight is we got to cross the Hoover Dam today I mean not just walk around and see it but actually drive on it...that was pretty cool and so pretty then we arrived here...Ash Fork, Arizona...aka..pretty much the middle of nowhere...FUN! But you know I think that I am finally starting to enjoy myself...besides the hours of car rides, little disagreements, and crossing the, um... shall I say, oh so pretty desert...lol. Ya well I better get going for now, but don’t worry I’ll keep you updated and pictures posted...
Love ya all
