London Bridge

Joyce and the London Bridge
London Bridge

Ron, Jan, Joyce and the London Bridge


Yesterday (Wednesday) we ventured over to Lake Havasu City with Seattle friends Ron and Jan. This was the first time Joyce and I had been there. The area is a little different from here, as there is more color to the surrounding hills. The bridge is pretty amazing in itself, and to think that they dismantled it, shipped it over and reassembled it is impressive. This coming weekend is the beginning of spring break for most colleges, and Lake Havasu City will have thousands of college kids.
Today's temperatures are supposed to be creeping into the 90's. We have our weekly hike scheduled for today, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's cancelled. If it's still on, I'm thinking it will be a little shorter than the last two 8 milers.
Ron and Jan are going to be in the area for about a week, and we will probably be squeezing in another day trip. On Saturday Ron and I will be taking in the Good Guys car show in Scottsdale. So, next week you can expect more car pictures!
Our air conditioner was repaired (under warranty) on Tuesday. Just in the nick of time as the temperature forecast is in the 90 degree range for the next several days.

Beautiful bridge! I think it's cool that you guys are traveling around a bit and seeing other places while "docked" in Apache Junction. Those temps sound heavenly to me!

Your right about the bridge being amazing,putting it back together again would have been the ultimate jigsaw puzzle.
The hikes sound like a fun way to keep in shape, and you can tan at the same time.
Glad your A/C is fixed, it could have gotten kind of toasty in there....Diane
