We stayed in Searchlight Wednesday night and Jackpot Thursday night. Our good friends, Ross and Flo McNurlin, from Twin Falls (and next-door-neighbors in Yuma) took me to dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Jackpot and then I stopped by their home Friday morning for a coffee fix before hitting the road. Thanks Ross and Flo!
I then had lunch with Heidi in Boise before heading to the mountain. Thanks for lunch Heidi!
Below are some examples of a new hobby I picked up on my way to Idaho -- photography at 80 mph.
The pictures above and below are at Havasu Springs outside of Lake Havasu City. It is beautiful (okay, I stopped for these two pictures)!
The desert landscape is constantly changing and beautiful.
I don't know what kind of tree this is but it was completely covered with pink flowers and was absolutely gorgeous against the brilliant blue sky in Jackpot, Nevada.
