Mischief Managed - Spring Training Major League Baseball in Phoenix, AZ

Game 1:  Texas Rangers vs Colorado Rockies, Surprise Stadium, Phoenix, AZ.


Today, we made short work of relocating from Las Vegas, NV to Phoenix, AZ. Eyes on the prize!  Baseball is in our immediate future. 





This the a view of Lake Mead which backs the famous Hoover Dam. We toured the dam and walked on the new bridge three years ago.  There is no view of the dam from the bridge in the east bounds lanes. 



A few rolling hills as we head south. 



Only one gas stop today a few miles east of Kingman, AZ. 



Our first big cacti!!  We are getting closer.


The landscape is changing. 


Desert's Edge RV aka The Purple Park is located north of Phoenix. It is not nearly as posh as our last park; however, the fees are not as lofty either :). We stayed here last time so it is a familiar location. 



What did we ever do before Google Maps? I am not complaining - these amazing fly-over interchanges allow you to get where you need to go at 60 mph. I think that is one of the biggest differences from driving in Canada - on and off ramps have very low speed limits at home. Here - you just keep going and need to make decisions quickly. We just listen to 'Fifi' our google map voice and go with the flow. 
















Chocolate drizzled strawberries and brownie skewers. . .. . . .do not make eye-contact. 



The price is right in the outfield; however, my posterior is now flat. 



This trailer is full-service!
