Day 13 - Surprise, AZ to Las Vegas, NV

Breakfast with our hosts and then off for Las Vegas, but not before a quick stop at Starbucks.

About 40 miles out, just past the town of Wickenburg, is a new Trilogy community. Trilogy is a step up from most communities and Trilogy at Wickenburg Ranch is no exception. The model homes are real standouts in design, with the best outdoor living we have seen. As expected, prices are somewhat higher. The only problem is location. It's a long way back to Phoenix for any significant shopping.

The rest of the trip was pretty much what you would expect when driving through the desert. Cactus and Joshua trees dominated the landscape and sagebrush filled in where necessary. After a brief rain storm we stopped for a Subway sandwich and gas in Kingman, Although not yet rush hour, Las Vegas freeways were busy and it seems turn signals are optional.

I know it was only an hour ago, but a can't remember the name of the Mexican restaurant where we had dinner and I can't find it on Google. But it was good. Very Good. If you are in Las Vegas, I recommend it highly.

Tomorrow will be another short drive, about 270 miles as I remember.

281 miles today.
