House and Meadview ride

Starting to get the office set up.  Still need a large bookcase.

We just piled some furniture in the living room. haven't decided on an arrangement yet

Since this picture was taken, Pat has done a lot of work in here.  It's coming together

This will be the guest room.  Trying not to load it up too much.

Many options, where to put furniture to make it work the best

The dining room table will go up this evening, have to put the legs on it.  We can't find the glass shelved that go in the buffet.  They could be in Coos Bay.

Time off from the move to ride with Ed and Carl to Roger's Market in Meadview.  They chose their KLR's today.  They rotate between their Harleys and Vulcans.

Ed and Carl ride up here every Friday.  It's about 50 miles from Kingman, and is nice country to ride in.  That's Ron, the  owner behind the counter.

Very cool picture of the store,in a different day.

Loved this cactus picture in the store

That's Sheriff Ron

Ron is a NASCAR fan, maybe I can get some good tips from him before I choose  my Fantasy team next week
Roger's Market in in Lake Mead City.  I'm not sure if it's a real town, but there are a lot of people out in the  wilderness around here.

The turn off that goes to the skywalk over the canyon

Lots of Joshua Trees around here.  We've close to the West end of the Grand Canyon

Maybe a Coyote Gourd.  We passed a lot of these on the way up to the Lake.  They are called several different  names by the locals.  This weekend in Meadview, there will be a Coyote Gourd Festival

The pretty white flowers were all fresh on the way up this morning, but it's in the mid  90's right now in the direct sun.  they sort of  get floppy until the sun goes down

These buds will be open tomorrow

There are hundreds of these plants along the road

A special Tye Dye Speedometer!

The open road

That's Carl back there.  I tried to get him to get closer for a picture, but I don't think he know what  I was doing :-)

More Coyote Gourd plants.

I think this road turns into a small, rugged trail that crosses the mountains and comes out  near Chloride on Highway  93.  I plan to try it someday when it cools off a little.
