October 24, 2013 Over the Hump to Pahrump

After lots of hugs and see you later, we left our friends and headed north to Pahrump - or as they say “Over the Hump to Pahrump”.

It was a perfect day for pictures:

I love this shot - no photo touchups either.  As an amateur photographer, there are some photos that stand out to me and this will be one of them.

We made our way to the Escapee Co-op Park in Pahrump where we will be for the next week.  I really like this park - people are great and the spaces are huge.  We put our name on the list for a lot here a few years ago and in April we made it to the top of that list.  But, their policy is that if you are not here and put it in the rental pool, there is no return for you.  So for us, unless we spend months here, that would not work out at this time.  We had them put our name on the bottom of the list until we figure out what we are going to do.  At the Co-op in Casa Grande, we receive credit on our M&O when we put our lot in the rental pool because it does bring money into the park.

One of the nice things here (that my Andy LOVES) is an area to work on your rig.  So once we checked in, we headed over to the “Pit” where Andy changed the oil and filter, and greased the MH.  They also have an area where we were able to wash the MH too.

Back in our space, we set up and relaxed - even Dusty had a great time being outside.
