2010-12-09 We're still here! Just Leaving...

Yes, we left yesterday for the warmer, friendlier states (we were hoping) but it was not to be. Got on the ramp from 26 mile road in Washington, Michigan and all of a sudden I noticed that the tow vehicle, our Safari Minivan was kissing the back end of the RV. Hmm I said, that shouldn't happen, "Tony what's going on". Well it seems that one side of the hitch broke clean off. So there I was in freezing weather directing folks to not get on the ramp, to go around and get on the I-94 some other way.

That lasted for 30 minutes or so until Tony got the Safari engaged and off we went. He stopped for gas in the truck and I trundled on to Camping world where, I am sure there was a brand new hitch in our future.

So, it is 6am on Thursday and me with a bad cold can't sleep. My nightly duties were to get up ever hour and run the water so the pipes don't freeze. We just have to get out of town earlier. Thanks for listening...

If you are going to stick around for a Focus: HOPE Music Festival, Mary, there was only one that would exit you into warm weather... June 1969... the very first at Herb Cohen's "Raven Gallery East" in Mount Clemens (a short-lived venue). Dario raised enough money to have a 3-button phone installed for Focus: HOPE in the Madonna rectory and the rest is history. Travel safely.

London Bridge in Lake Havasu, Arizona

What a neat place. Just so you know,  London Bridge  is a bridge in  Lake Havasu City ,  Arizona ,  United States , that is the relocated 1831  London Bridge  that spanned the  River Thames  in  London ,  England  until it was dismantled in 1967. The Arizona bridge is a  reinforced concrete  structure clad in the original masonry of the 1830s bridge, which was bought by  Robert P. McCulloch  from the  City of London . McCulloch had exterior granite blocks from the original bridge numbered and transported to America to construct the present bridge in Lake Havasu City, a planned community he established in 1964 on the shore of  Lake Havasu . The bridge was completed in 1971 (along with a canal), and links an island in the lake with the main part of Lake Havasu City. This bush is breathtaking also there were a lot of Restaurants and Brewery's around too bad its ...
