Howdy, here we are, on the way to Lake Havasu City, what a cool place to be! The temp. is 77* daytime and middle 40's at night.We are lovin' it! Below you will see the British invasion, and the London Bridge, reported to come from jolly ol' England piece by piece. It sure was purty as a speckled hen!





SEE... right there it says so in big letters, however, some people don't treasure this beautiful place like they should, as you will see in the next picture. If you look reeealy good you will see something there that isn't a duck, or a fish, or a turtle, can you tell what it is??










We spotted this paddle wheeler right off the bat, really pretty, but small compared to others we have seen.





We walked all the way across the bridge and back, this is the view from the middle, incredible. We were there early, and very few people were around, very quiet and peaceful.





After we walked the bridge, we took a stroll under the bridge, very nice. they have walking paths on both sides, one side you get stopped by a gate, how dare they, private property they say, HUH!!! The rock work was amazing, and as you can see, they are all ready for Christmas.








We have driven all over, and tomorrow we will be doing some hiking. Those who have been here know just how beautiful it is here, no picture I could take could even come close, honest!









TADA........This is Lake Havasu, and the houses you see are really in California.We are in Arizona.









Here's the Whody at our campsite, that is gona change tomorrow, are heading for the State Park, it is cheaper, and I'll show you some of the stuff we found there!










Yep, these are PINK cactus, never in all my years, and I have quite a few behind me, have I seen pink cactus, when mine turned pink it usually meant they were dead, or would soon be! This is one of the walks, so will check it out later on, and let you know what kind they are.










Then we spied the bun~bun, what a cutie, a few minutes later we saw about 6 of them all together, may be having a pot luck?, who knows, Sassy got so excited I could hardly keep her in the car, she wanted to chase them and play with them, NOT!!














THEN........We saw these guys, Quail,they were just pecking away, and the same thing goes for them, there were at least a jillion of 'em, Sassy REALLY liked them, she barked at them but it was like, "go away little dog, you don't scare us", we didn't let her out tho.
Bill & I thought of a little adventure we wanted you to share in, we saw a sign- post advertising homes for sale, only $299,000(starting), so decided we'd just ask you to pick out the model you want, we will do a little investing for you, check it out. Ya can't have the last picture, it's ours!












Small, probably $299,000, no grass to mow.















Next up, a little bigger, I'm sure in price too. STILL....no grass to mow.
















This one you would have plenty of room for your RV, and it had a little landscaping, but was empty. LOVE the landscaping, rock,cacti and lots of dirt and sand, my kind of yard!

















THIS was our choice, it had a little character, so we stopped and got a price sheet, it is a steal for only $890,000, it is 14,100 sq.ft. property,4 bedrooms with walk-in closets, library, dining room, 5 baths and a swimming pool to boot! Inside is 3,535sq ft. THAT one we could all move into , makes more sense then us buying it,(as if we could or would), Whody is just the right size for us, lotz easier to clean, and if we want a pool we just stay in a park where they have one, let them clean it!! As for all of us moving in, or us investing in these,.....DON'T EVEN DREAM IT,CAUSE IT AIN'T HAPPENIN',SORRY FOLKS!!!!! We love ya all, but not quite that much, mean?? Nope, just smart! Soooo until next time************* Hugs, Prayers & Smiles to you all, Arlette & Bill & the Sweet Sassy.
