Tuesday, April 8th

After we got back to the RV yesterday, we ate fast and left for our next RV park. We are now at Emerald Cove and we can stay here for three nights for $29.95. CHEAP ! The only catch is we are required to hear their "presentation". They are going to try and sell us a timeshare. NO NO NO ! Today we walked 16 miles and just before we got to Vidal Junction, we met Al. Al was on a bicycle and had left Palm Springs and was on his way to Tucson. He was about 70 years old and camping in the desert. I asked him about the rattlesnakes and if they presented any danger and he said that the only animals he had seen was a Gopher snake and a tortoise. We made our way through Vidal Junction and on to mile marker 132, our stopping point for today. I found a orange vest, the type that highway workers use, a steak knife, and a golf tee. No tools or money today. But I need to tell about one more thing. The mystery of the towels. Today and yesterday, we have found at least 100 towels along the road. What's going on? We think they are flying out of boats that are being towed along the highway. Parker is on the Colorado River and Lake Havasu is just a few miles away. Lots of boaters and water sports. And lots of towels. Stay tuned .....
