On Friday, November 26th, we took a day trip to visit Oatman, Arizona.  Got a late start, left our campsite at Davis Park Camp at about 12:20 PM! Sunny and very light winds once we got away from the Colorado River.

 

It was only 18 miles, but a bit of a slow drive, about an hour, due to the rough road.  We arrived at 1:30 PM.  It was CRAZY busy!

Oatman is famous for the friendly Burros that roam the streets looking for a handout, 

As well as being on the old Historic Route 66...

We met some Burros....

And made a friend!

Here is a YouTube Video of the back road drive to Oatman and going through town!

We have given some of you Agave Plants...this shows how big they can get!  They can get even bigger with an 8 to 10 foot spread!  The link explains how to keep it as a houseplant...

 

Anyway, Oatman was super busy and crowded, so we decided to get out of there!  We took the paved road back to Ft Mohave and then back to our campsite on the river...Arrived at 5:30 PM...

Tomorrow, Saturday, November 27th' we will continue south along the Colorado River to the general area of Parker, AZ and try to find a campsite.  We don't have any reservations...we shall see what we find!
