Havasu...and 'where has the week gone' ??

This place just got a whole lot busier & a whole lot noisier on the weekend! Not so much in the campground itself, although there were a few more units coming in. But the boat launch here. Wow. Very busy! All the young people with their big fast noisy boats. And they can't seem to launch them without turning the boat radio up full blast!? (yes we are that old grumpy couple sitting there in our lawn chairs.) Anyway, at least they are heading to town with their noise and they aren't hanging around this area of the lake after they've launched their fancy equipment! We now realize there are big advantages to be camped on the outskirts of Havasu City!

On Friday I drove to town for a haircut and did a bit of shopping on my own. I have to admit that it was rather nice not to have Ron tailing me about the store & asking what I'm looking for. Every 2 minutes! When you shop with him you don't 'look'. At anything! You go in, grab what you need & get out. In a hurry! grrr!

So tomorrow we will be moving on. I admit that I will really miss this place. I love our lake view. The hot lazy days & those warm nights. Swimming in a lake at the end of October, the road runners, the quail & the bunnies that share our campsite! So awesome!

Something I forgot to mention and will NOT miss... There are little desert mice here. They scamper around our feet when we sit at the fire during the evening. They freak me out! 

Also they bring out the rattle snakes. People have said that they see them laying about on the campground roads at night. Eek... you won't find me using those campground toilets! I will not miss them... or the flies! The flies are so annoying during the day! Anyway... we are saying goodbye to Havasu on Monday.  Our next email will be from Yuma.
