Forgot to mention that our hotel lobby has a full scale replica of the British royal coach used by the Royals on special occasions. The other night, we went to the restaurant in our hotel for dinner, and ran into a large party of "parrot heads", most of whom were older than we are. I like Jimmy Buffet as much as anyone, but these weezer-geezers were more than we could handle, so we exited stage right and went elsewhere.
Yesterday we took a 2.5 hour boat tour. From the London Bridge north to just south of the I-40 bridge. Beautiful day: clear sky, 60 degrees, no wind. Great day to spend an afternoon: looking at great rock formations and wildlife - including a pair of big-horn sheep.
Will probably check out the Parker dam (which created Lake Havasu) today.
All the news today and last night was about the shootings in Tucson. Last week the news was about a standoff outside the Chandler Fashion Mall - just down the road from our hotel when we were there. Just what this country needs: another nut-case with guns.
