Awake: 5:15am Temp 60 Clear Elevation 4250 ft Overnight @
Kingman, Arizona.

There is a Blue Beacon truck wash with a busy fueling station @ this exit
off I-25, plus we found out that there is a Catholic church in the Old
Town of Kingman with a large parking area just 5 blocks from the church.
Our home hasn’t been washed since May 25….4 months ago when K & I did it
ourselves. We’ve been told that Sunday is the busiest time of the week for
the Blue Beacon truck wash because the truckers want to have their rigs
clean before arriving into the Los Angles area on Monday.

So @ 8:15am we drive over to the Blue Beacon, line up behind 8 trucks for
45 min & wait our turn. They use man & machine for cleaning with an
average of 15 to 20 min per unit. Our motorhome + car take 20 min & they
both look a lot cleaner.

Then we drive down the road to Old Town Kingman (15 min), find the
visitors center, park the coach, walk 5 blocks & attend the 10:30 Mass @
St. Mary’s church.

We are officially on the road again @ 12:00 noon. Interstate 40 through
Arizona continues to be so-so; rough & smooth. Then California; also the
roads are rough & smooth. Our cornering headwind stays with us but not as
strong as Saturday.

We arrive @ the Desert Willow RV Resort in Victorville,California @
4:15pm. Kathy selected this campground as the 2nd choice & it really is a
nice hangout. It’s clean, well organized, big rig friendly with shade +
night security. Just as we finish parking, Diane calls from The Villages
in Florida. They are visiting with the possibility of buying!

Next we walk the campground for 15 min of exercise…. & Kathy does 2
laundry loads.

8:35 dinner: Stuffed peppers & toast.

Watch movie on cable: “Peeping Tom.” Not our kind of flick.

High temp today= ? Lights out: 11:00pm
