Yep, I told ye it'd be back.
Only now maybe it should be: 'The Old Desert Rat!'
I've been stayin' at L-A-U-G-H-L-I-N since 11/28. Checking out five acres of the great gravel pit* called called Arizona, that my late mother owned. Lots to tell you all about it when i get back.
Laughlin is only 20 mi. from Kingman Arizona (actually, 'Golden Valley' Arizona) where the property is, but my brother jack and i are staying in a casino hotel here in Laughlin for the fun of it (and the cheap room rates)
The work part of viewing the property, talking to realtors and appraisers etc is now largely done so it's fun time.
Indeed we ARE laughin' a lot, and we are having fun!
more later.
