Lake Havasu State Park – Lake Havasu City, Arizona
Lake Havasu State Park sits directly to the north of London Bridge in Lake Havasu City on the eastern shores of Lake Havasu. It definitely has a campground feel to it, is directly on the water on Lake Havasu, yet right in the city. Weird. You don’t feel like you

Yes we had ourselves a few lazy days in Tucson for a week or so. After a few hard winters of family emergencies we seemed to have accumulated non refundable (but changeable) airline tickets so here we are stuck with an encroaching expiration date. What shall we do? How about
