ALONG THE COLORADO RIVER ~ YUMA, AZ TO LAKE MOJAVE, NV

Here's a scramble of pictures from the last couple of weeks, too fun to toss but not enough for a single theme.

Dying trees along the shores of Lake Havasu State Park.  Less and less water in the Colorado River that sustains them.

A makeover of increased spaces and water to all RV sites at the Havasu park has campers jammed in heel to toe. Between the constant high powered river boat noise, off-road racers, ultra-light motorized kites and highway noise, this is no longer a pleasant camping experience.
