Hidden Oasis RV Park
We began our trip back to California, via Las Vegas, this morning leaving Arizona around 0930 hrs. We traveled through Phoenix and on north on State Route 90 and then on to SR 93. After passing through Wickenburg the traffic became sparse and it was evident we were on a road less traveled.

We traveled though some beautiful and desolate country on this road. As the day progressed it began heating up inside and outside. The dash air hasn't worked for a couple of year and when it warms up, we turn on the diesel generator and use the residential air which keeps the entire coach cool. Glad we just had the residential air fixed! I turned on the generator and waited for it to warm up. and that's when Murphy visited us again, the law that is. It stopped running. I restarted it and after a couple of minutes it quit again. I tried to get it to run but it just refused. No generator means no air conditioning so we decided to stop early to avoid the hottest part of the day.

At around 1430 hrs we were midway between Phoenix and Las Vegas when we stopped at the Hidden Oasis RV Park in Wikieup. We maneuvered between the large trees into a pull through site with a 50amp pedestal. Plugged in right a way and turned on the air conditioner. This was a great little stop and I would spend a few more days here except we need to get home for grandchild's 1st birthday.

Tomorrow morning we'll be leaving and heading to Las Vegas.
