On to Nevada

We left Utah on Friday (27th) and drove to Laughlin, NV deciding to by-pass Las Vegas and gamble at the casino with the RV park in Laughlin. That night they had a storm which resembled a tropical storm back home. It was obvious and later confirmed by the people at the casino that rain was not a normal occurrence there. There was no cover from the parking garage to the casino. As we dashed across the tiled walkway I heard a squeak, squeak, squeak followed by a "Barrrrb". I looked back to see Jerry flat on his back. The squeaks were his attempt to keep his footing in his crocs on the wet tile. Fortunately he was not hurt, only very wet and I was able to hold my laughter until he was back on his feet. The next morning there were roads closed because of the mud and rocks washed onto them. The RV rocked and rolled in the strong wind.
Jerry did pretty well playing "Let'm Ride" and since they had penny slots it took me a long time to lose my money.
