While waiting for Pat to get her hair cut today, I went for a ride and got some pictures of the area scenery. There are mountains on both sides of Bullhead City with the river down in between. Because of the angle and my elevation, I couldn't get the river in the pictures. Also, I am including a picture of what Pat and I had for supper tonight. Pat bought some steaks a couple days back at Sam's club and when I saw them I though they were small roasts. You will see what I mean in the picture. I grilled the first one tonight and it came out well and very tasty. We cut it in half and had plenty for both of us. The steaks weighed around 1 1/2 pounds each. Mountains northwest of Laughlin, Nevada.
Badlands type area to the left of the mountains in the first picture.
I call this one the Knob.
This one could be a castle.
This is the beginning of casino row in Laughlin.
This is the Colorado Belle and to the left of the picture the Golden Nugget. They are at the other end of the casino row. I wasn't able to get the middle this time.
This is a little background about the two Pats. Patrick and Pat were married on March 17, 2008. They met over 40 years ago while working for the same company. Pat left that job after 7 years but Patrick continued on and retired from there after 26 1/2 years. They kept in touch over the years. Thanks to the internet, they reconnected online and began communicating on a regular basis. After over 4 years of dating they tied the knot. Patrick was already retired and Pat retired after they got married. Pat also sold her house and they moved to their current home in June of 2008. Patrick owned a house on Lake Osakis in northern Minnesota and was able to sell it that fall. They are now enjoying retirement on the Sauk River and the Horseshoe Chain of Lakes.
