Holy Crap, what was that??

So we toured Kingman with Dawn Brannies, our property manager, houses look great, well kept, thanks Dawn! Spent the night in the Kmart parking lot, nice and quiet, and free! Headed off to Quartszite, went through Lake Havasu City, saw the London Bridge, it is actually kinda pretty! No pics though. 30 miles south of LHC we hear this massive "bang",  Blown tire!! Poor Rocky tried to climb into my lap, he was terrified, and so was I but Mike did an excellent job of getting us off the road, he called 911 and I called our Roadside assistance company, Safeco. Nice policeman came and parked behind us with lights on as we were partially in the road. 40  minutes later came the Toe truck man who changed our tire right there. Hot and sweaty! He said the rest of our rear tires were at risk of doing same thing, even though they looked like they had a lot of life in them.

 So we limped off down the road on our spare, and a few miles later came to this oasis in the desert: Bluewater Resort and Casino! Spent the night in the parking lot. When the tire blew it took out the wiring to all the functional units of the interior of RV, meaning no water pump, fridge or lights. Still had solar to run the fan, charge Kindles, Wifi etc. Next morning called Foremost, started a claim. Because the RV is our house they will pay for meals and lodging until RV is fixed. Spent all day waiting for new tires to be delivered from Big O tire in Lake Havasu City, nice people. So we went and got them put on, late in the day, then back to the casino, got a room as the RV was just too hot without AC. Did some gambling, did better than Vegas!!! Then off to Yuma finally! Arrived at around 1PM super hot, found the repair shop, dropped the RV, they said looks like the furnace was taken out also. Got this really nice suite at the Best Western, will stay here till RV gets fixed up!!

Got a good deal on Orbitz, paid same price for this suite as we would have for a regular room just walking in off the street, of course I had to purchase the room on the Kindle standing in the lobby, with the check in lady waiting for me to complete the transaction, I don't know why she didn't just match the rate, most places will do that!!

Anyways, we made it to Yuma!!!
