Day 2 - Edwards AFB, CA - Holbrook, AZ

We started the day in our $5 budget RV spot at Edwards AFB.....
 
Some roads really do lead nowhere - and this is one them at EAFB

The highlight of the day was a whole BUS LOAD of Japanese Senior Citizen tourists we ran into in a desolated spot in AZ. I wanted to tell them all America is not like THIS. To be honest - America IS beautiful, but we've seen a whole lot of ugly today.  It was hot, run down, dusty....and they were SO impressed with the trailer and the big trucks. "Sagoi, Sagoi....Oki".....and Michael sat at the wheel and had many photos taken.
 
 
We stopped for the night in Holbrook, AZ.  Odd RV park - looks like they leveled 1/2 of a trailer park and built an RV park..... Arielle and I quickly spotted "Creepy man" as we headed to the showerhouse. He has no tent or RV....just pulled his car off across from us and sits......
 
I thought it would be nice to bring the fruit "bowl" into the trailer....nope...going to need to find something smaller when we move in. LOL
 
Chilling.....

I am thinking that the interior layout of our campers might be quite similar. 4 bunks up front? main bed in back? looks like your 'kitchen', dining table and sofa are in the same position as us. A very usable and workable layout, isn't it?

And I chuckled at your valet parking with the camper comment. A couple years ago my parents traveled to Vermont with the 5th wheel. They were going to stay at the Red Lion Inn and called ahead to see if there would be a place for them to park the rig. They were assured that there would be a place marked off with cones just for them. When they arrived they found it was a couple of parallel parking spots along a side street. I am still not sure how Daddy did it, but he parallel parked the truck and 5th wheel in between a few already parked cars!!!!! He sent photos or I might not have totally believed! :) ha! Something only fellow RV'ers can understand. :)
