April 21st to April 30, 2020 From Las Vegas to Michigan

We left Las Vegas, beautiful weather and great friends on April 21st to 
head for Michigan.
It was a great trip home with very little traffic.  I drove about 250
miles a day.  It was easy with no traffic and an awesome co-pilot who
kept my water glass full and snacks at the ready.
I have included some of the campgrounds we stayed at on our
way back to the mitten.


Flo & Bob said to be sure we stopped at the Hoover Dam pull off on our way out.
It was a great stop with a beautiful view.




Our first stop was in Williams, AZ.  We stayed at
Rail Side RV Ranch and picked up dinner





 This is the train that take people to the Grand Canyon.
We took the train a couple of years ago.  It 
was so much fun.


This cemetery was at the other end of 
Williams.  There were some very old headstones here.  
Most of the sights were fenced in some way.
It was a huge place with a lot of history. 




This building is up for sale

The view down main street.
This place is always packed until
Covid came to town



On the road to Grants, NM

We found Journey KOA in Grants.  It had great trails to walk and
history to read.  You could also order dinner
delivered to your rig.  We got a Thanksgiving dinner
that was really good.  The owners just took over
the property three weeks before the lock down.  I would
defiantly stop by this campground again.





We found a great park in Cloverdale, IN.
The grounds were beautiful and it was an easy in kind of place.




Our last stay on the road was in Angola, IN at 
Happy Acres.  It was a nice easy in place.  Really
nice owners


So now were are back in Michigan at Holiday Shores.
Bill has an appointment for a new CT scan on May 15th.
He hasn't had chemo since we left Florida March 7th.
We found out at that time that his chemo was no longer controlling 
the cancer in his lungs.  The lesions had doubled and some had grown. 
If all goes well he will be set up for a new treatment that
 could be chemo or a pill.  We will know more on 
the 20th when we see his Dr for an update.

We hope everyone is managing well with the Covid-19 
lock down.  We spent most of our time on the road or 
quarantined with friends in Las Vegas.
It looks like there is a light at the end of the tunnel and we
will be able to figure out the new normal.
Take care everyone!!
