You got to be kidding

It got down to a cool 90° last night, and a high today of 114°. Now that is in the shade mind you. The motorhome’s outside temperature sensor is tucked behind the front cap, out of the sun. We have had enough. Tomorrow we are getting ready and come Tuesday morning we are out of here. They are saying this may be a record breaking summer for Lake Havasu City. Lake Havasu City already has the honor of having the highest temperature ever for a populated area of 128°. We are not hanging around for the new record. Here it is 9:00p and it is still 103° outside. We are able to keep the inside of the motorhome comfortable but what good is it to sit here inside the motorhome all summer. Susan is anxious to see the Grandkids and her parents anyway.

    It's only been a couple degrees cooler here in Valley Center this week. 110 in the day/85 night. BUT IT'S A DRY HEAT!

    Avril and I are taking off for Yellowstone via Las Vegas this Saturday. Hopefully it will be a little cooler at that altitude...

  2. Read my July posts from last year. We tried to do the Yellowstone thing via Las Vegas. We got as far as Zion and turned back. Just to hot and miserable. This is not a good time of year to do that trip.

    The difference with us is we're driving the Camry and staying in hotels. Yeah, I read your blog when you were there. In fact, it was your experience in Zion that made us skip that section. The plan is to go straight from Vegas to Yellowstone with an overnight stay in the Salt Lake area. The weather forecast for Yellowstone? Low 70's daytime/high 40's at night.
