Arizona, Bullhead City Mar 3 - 10

Ridgeview RV Park, Bullhead City, AZ   This campground is located on a ridge on the east side of the Colorado River looking out over the city of Laughlin, NV. The Colorado River here was so clear, at 30 feet deep, you could see the bottom as if it were only a foot deep.  What a wonderful place to kayak the river with our friends John and Terry.  The only bad thing is the wind.  It blows hard almost every day.  We only got on the river one time because of the wind.  It was a good trip that day.  We kayaked down to Lazy Harry's bar and enjoyed nachos and beer at the end of the kayak run.  I could even drink, because Mark was our designated driver.

Another day of unloading kayaks.  Kay has really enjoyed John and Mark being around to do the heavy lifting.

Mark checking out the launch and ducks.  This is the launch just north of the Riverside casino.

This water taxi takes people from the AZ side of the river to the Riverside casino on the Nevada  side.

Colorado Belle casino.  This is the casino we all went to the Pints brewery for pizza.  

On our way down the river passing all the casinos on the Nevada side of the river.

Looking back up the river.

The London Jet boat comes up the river from the town of Lake Havasu.  We had to be careful when it went by because of the big wake it made.

Some of the landscape along the river.

This want to be hotel never made it.  It has been here for a lot of years.

Kay took this picture looking straight down into the water.  I think the river was about 15 foot deep at this point.  The water was so clear and beautiful.

We are coming to the section of the river where many homes have been built.  As we go by them, we pick which ones we would want to have for our own.

Here is Kay doing what she loves to do most while kayaking.  Taking lots of pictures.

Three female Common Merganser ducks

These two manikins have been on this deck for years.  They were here two years ago when we kayaked the river here.

Gas line going over the river.

This was our takeout point on the kayak trip down the river.  Now it is time for beer and nachos.

The boat ramp at Lazy Harry's Bar.

The ceiling was covered with 1 dollar bills with names all over them.  So we had to add ours to it.  John - John - Terry, Marty - Kay, and Mark - Mary.

John and I had to give the waitress a big hug for her good service.

One evening we all went to the Colorado Belle to have pizza.  Looking over the edge of the bridge to the casino were all these fish and ducks.  For a quarter you could buy some food to feed them.  Crazy.

Terry lapping up on Marks beer before passing it down to him.

Mark finally got his beer.

The pizza here was out of this world.
