    Morning Russ, I'm a couple days behind...Just can't get enough of this area of the desert. So unique, your videos really make it look inviting. Good info on the Off Road Racing at Parker. FYI to all viewers. In just a couple weeks Oct. 22nd-25th is The Bluewater Desert Challenge. This is a race for UTV's, buggy's and trucks. Always a lot of action. I'll be there!

    Thank you so much Russ. It was beautiful. Yes the morning sun rises are gorgeous for taking pictures. My favorite time of the day. Remember your kodak moment, being done on your Gopro 9...I can hear the children now saying, "What on earth is a kodak moment?" Bless their hides, they are so sweet. Yes it is kodak moments indeed. Keep on trucking...Big wave from the Hogarths in Osoyoos BC. Canada. Love you all...

    Hi Russ, I've been watching your' vids for about a year now since they came into my youtube feed. It's a great resource for planning road trips and you have a knack for finding routes that are "too cool for school! I'm planning on following some of the routes you've featured this year, great content and you have a good sense of editing and storytelling. Keep up the good work!

    I’ve put my drone up numerous times in this area and the Bill Williams Wildlife Refuge where I’ve been countless times. To get there it’s a left coming from Havasu once you cross the hwy 95 Bill Williams bridge onto Planet Ranch road which is dirt and somewhat maintained. As an artist I’ve made countless paintings of this area. I don’t live in Lake Havasu anymore but I do miss going down to this area with my friend.

    I learned to appreciate some of the sites you have introduced us to over the years. I especially like the Bill Williams Recreation Area and that Hualapai Mountain Park. I prefer the smaller parks without the crowds. That’s for sharing those gems with us. They are on my list for when I make it to AZ again (hopefully 2021).

(I'm not sure what happened on the chat last night, but my screen went completely white after I messaged Hello to you. I tried to come back in, & it gave me the impression it kicked me out?
