After a late breakfast/early lunch and taking care of a few more things at Teri’s house, we headed south. Thanks Terri for sharing your home with us.

It seems like our errands are never ending like getting gas, groceries, going to a boot store for me, and picking up a gift for Roxanne’s Aunt Janice (in Indiana).

Well, by the time we headed out of Las Vegas, it was supper time and getting pretty dark (and we are trying to only drive during daylight hours to enjoy all the sights along the way). We ended up staying the night in the parking lot at the Joker’s Wild Casino in Henderson. We have really good RV neighbors here in the parking lot who came over to let us know our generator started blowing a lot of blue smoke (we were running the generator so we could run the air conditioner and cool the RV off). It seems the maintenance repairs done by Findley RV in Las Vegas were much less than satisfactory and thought we could burn off the excess oil (which seemed to be causing the smoke) off during the drive to Kingman, AZ, on Thursday. Findley also did a poor job of changing out one of the 12-volt plugs, getting the bed dirty in the process, and didn’t follow our request to use our own synthetic oil during the LOF of the RV engine. We will not use Findley RV ever again and we'll let everyone we know not to use them, either.
