Every so often I thought I would list some things that really tick me off about being on the road or just people in general. It is all done in fun though and nice to blow off steam. The next one will be the the things I love about rving.
1. Cities and towns that have exits to businesses that are so deep you bottom out on your car or motorhome.
2. Tripple transport trucks, they are getting longer all the time, saw one that had three on the back of his rig. Gravel haulers are longer too they can't get around the corners with out holding up traffic.
3. People who pass you then slow down.
4. Rvers who run their diesel motorhomes for over 5 minutes there is no need and when they are parked close to me the smell comes into the motorhome and is very noisy.
5. Left hand exit lanes there are a lot of them in the United States, thank goodness for GPS they tell you what lane to be in.
6. Guys wanting to help me back up my motorhome. I say no if I run into something it is my fault if they run me into something I am really upset. I know they want to help but don't.
7. Gas stations that face the convenience store, there is no room for a large motorhome with tow car to get around. I usually take the car and check out the gas stations to see if I can get in easily when I am staying somewhere for a few days. I stay at a lot of Flying J's they have RV islands that are easy in and out.
8. Expensive laundramats paid $2.50 a wash load and 25 cents for 6 minutes of drying in Durango. Most I have ever paid. At campgrounds they are usually from $1.00 to $1.50 and the same for the dryer.
9. The sand that blows constantly, it gets into everything. I have seen some of the older cars, the paint has been sand blasted off on certain areas.
10. Last but not least campgrounds that can't support motorhomes that run their air conditioners. Hardly get enough power and can't run any other electic equipment.
This was a Mexican guy dressed up in there native costume in Algodones.
On the salt flats in Death Valley with friends from British Columbia.
Some more Solo people in Pahrump. This was at the Terrible's casino seafoof buffet on a Friday night. The guy behind me is Roy and I dragged him to a few things in the area. The guy on the far right, Gary, I geocached with, did Zion National Park and now in Moab doing some 4 wheeling and hiking with him.The other guy is Leroy he lives on his property in the winter and rents out lots for the Solos. 
Just some trivia - The History of the Apron - This was on the wall of the Mum's restaurant in Pahrump, Nevada. All the Solos that were in the area met there every Sunday.

Its amazing what you find in restaurants especially the ones that have been there for a long time. It was hard to get a seat here on a Sunday morning, everyone came here after church.
This is a reminder that last December 1st snow fell in Pahrump Nevada and I left a couple of days after that. It didn't melt for a long time I am told. Now I am in 40C can't do much but enjoy the air conditioning. Moving on Monday.Something to laugh about. " A friend is someone who thinks your a good egg even thought your slightly cracked.
Have a great week everyone.
