Thursday, Oct. 23, 2014 – Drive Day to Mohave County Fairgrounds in Kingman, AZ

Left the campground about 8:40 and arrived right on schedule at the hay place at 9:00. After some analysis, Bill the hay guy decided to lift one of his stacks and bring it next to the truck so we could drop them in, rather than try to pick them up from the low stack that he had already opened. An hour later we had another 15 bales of beautiful, pure alfalfa on board, stopped at the gas station across from the campground, and headed down the road toward Las Vegas. A quick stop at Subway for lunch, and we managed to arrive at the Mohave County Fairgrounds by mid afternoon, having passed by the Hoover Dam (been there, done that!). With the horses settled into a couple of covered stalls, we headed out to do our essential shopping, than managed to settle down for the evening fairly early. The fairgrounds isn’t far from the center of things, so we heard lots of sirens and activity through the night, but with earplugs in, we had a good night sleep.
