Back in Kingman

September 30th.  Last picture for the month.  Went for a ride on this beautiful afternoon.  Can't think of any place I'd rather live!  Now, if all friends would move here to keep us company, it would be perfect!
One of these years, Kingman will be able to afford a new cop car.

When they did get one, it was painted up in honor of Zmean1

When Jamey T. gets his new Wing, look for a paint job similar to this!

Coast Guard has a presence on the Colorado Rive and Lake Mead here in Mohave County.

It's Rodeo Weekend and Andy Devine Days here.  The Patriot Riders had several bikes in the parade.
Passed several small herds of "free range" livestock today, but only too this picture.  There were some pretty horses, but a little far off the road.  There are no fences in this area, and if you hit an animal, YOU pay for it.  They have the right of way.

Nice to be back in the familiar feeling "dry" heat of the desert.  The weekly ride so the guys can get their lottery tickets and I can talk NASCAR with Ron, the store owner.


Our destination. A lot of "wild" people live in this Lake Mead Community. The store is 51 miles from our place in Kingman.  It's the closest place to the Glass overlook at the Grand Canyon West.

"Breakfast of Champions"

This has been a store, a bar, and a real estate office. But, it's been closed for several years.  Everyone that lives in Lake Mead City has to haul in their water.  Wells are around 900 feet deep and if you do get water it isn't very good. So, everyone has tanks and a way to haul them.

Plenty of Joshua Trees.  Just waiting to poke Skid. :-)

Back in Kingman.  On Northern Ave.  This just opened yesterday.    New Mexican Restaurant.

New Kawasaki/Suzuki shop.

The owner and his employees did the paint, epoxy, and most of the interior building.  Excellent job!

Parts and Service has a nice waiting room.  This was most recently a Toyota Dealership, but it's been complete re-organized.

Nice row of Vulcans.

Great and glad the PGR was there with their flags! The Police cars are worth more than new ones. Glad Ya are back "home" and enjoying it! GBG
