This Fall we're heading back out west. COVID will be in our thoughts as we plan for adventures while we stay safe! Our plans are to head first to Colorado, then zip over to Utah. Lots of hiking and biking are planned along our route.

We found where all of the RVs go in the Winter........

Along Arizona 95 between Needles and Quartzite, there are at least a zillion RVs; motored, unmotored, big, and small.  We couldn't believe the RV "resorts" along the banks of the Colorado River; all filled.

We did our part for a few days.  Camped at Buckskin Mountain State Park; a very nice campground right on a bend in the Colorado river.  We watched the power boats, pontoon boats, and the kayaks traveling up and down the river.  Also took the Lightning Bolt trail which crosses highway 95 and leads into the rugged terrain away from the river; excellently maintained trail.

And we learned where all of the RVers go for entertainment, when we biked from the campground along the Colorado.  They go to Road Runner Cafe!  A floating bar (guess if business gets bad, they can just float to a new location), with a great menu and bar.  We enjoyed our nachos and a couple of drafts...........but then had we had too much to drink feeling a little disoriented, or was the raft floating up and down?  It was the raft from the speed boats traveling by.
