Traveling thru the 3-Corners area

"3-Corners" ???  Yep, California to Nevada to Arizona. 

Sadly left Death Valley after a Furnace Creek Resort hotel tour...pretty cool.  Just one small step up from our campsite.  Truly in the middle of nowhere; and magnificent.

After an overnight in the big metropolis of Shoshone and a dinner at The Crowbar featuring Mexican food, we drove through the Mohave National Preserve....2400 square miles of desert.

Midway through the preserve we reached Kelso Depot.  Built 90 years ago as a source of spring water to replenish the steam locomotives, and with a engine yard to add some pushers to get over the 2400 foot pass, the Depot was saved from the wrecking ball.... and then restored to its former glory.

Unfortunately ??  the post office across the street did not get restored.  Is this the first post office in our country to ever be closed?  Where were the Nevada legislators?  Why didn't they keep this one open?

Then on to Laughlin Nevada.  Camped in a 750 foot RV parking lot, adjacent to the River Casino.  Had a lucky day, only losing $3, and getting 2 margaritas for our efforts.

Finally to Lake Mohave and a NPS campsite for $10 a night.  No hookups, but great views.  Hunkered down while the 40+ mile windstorm blew through.  All ok, just cleaning up all of the new dust/sand throughout our home.
