Mar 24 Scottsdale, AZ - Las Vegas, NV 292 miles 6 hours
We took a long time trying to decide if we're driving to Vegas today. We have reservations for a flight home on April 3rd. I didn't want to spend 10 days in Vegas, we gamble too much and we find places to eat. So if we lost any weight during our RV adventure, we always gain it back when we go back to Las Vegas.
We finally decided Vegas it is....we got a late start, around 930am and it took us about 6 hours. We took a little break halfway.
On the drive, I called Las Vegas RV Resort to book a week. We always stay at this park, it's a 55+ park with a pool and hot tub which we always make use of. They were booked and couldn't take us until tomorrow. Then I called KOA at Sam's Town. They quoted me $59.99 for a pull thru....crazy! Finally, I booked a regualar hotel room at Sunset Station for $45.00.
It's March Madness so I put in a bet for the last game. Oregon vs Cal Irvine. I went Oregon and over. Oregon made the spread but missed the over. Was 127 1/2 but the total for the game was 127. Can't believe how close!
Dad always travel to Las Vegas during March Madness. Miss him a lot.....

We're staying at Las Vegas RV Resort for 6 nights. The rate is $32.54 per night with Good Sam. They do not offer a weekly rate. We really like it here. The sites are nothing special but the hot tub and pool area is nice and the laundry is pretty reasonable, $1.50 to wash and $1.25 to dry. I like to wash everything before putting the RV in storage. Plus, it's a 55+ park so no kids splashing around in the pool.

The few days here are spent gambling, playing in black jack tournaments, putting in March Madness parlays, a little shopping, getting the RV ready for storage and eating out with friends. Life is good.
April 3
Another great trip coming to a close. We put another 1,086 miles on the RV and 1,285 miles on the Kia. We sure get around!
