After leaving Indio, we made the now familiar run up to Mojave CA to visit my granddaughter and family. Chris Gustin left home for his job in the I T department of Union Pacific the morning after we arrived. Sorry that he is not in any of my pictures. Samantha took us to the nearby Mojave airport to look at old planes hangared there. The ones which are flyable sometimes are rented to movie and commercial makers.

“Mighty Mite” Jeep. Its aluminum body makes it light enough to be transported by helicopter!
Samantha and great-grandson Luke, now 13 and taller than his mother!
Me, Luke and Samantha. I sill have the facial hair started in the rafting trip down the Grand Canyon.
My two great-granddaughters are just 1 1/2 years apart , but Tabitha, the younger, is almost as tall as her sister, Ivy. Ivy is sitting on Luke’s lap here.
GARDEN RAILROAD IN LAS VEGAS
We left Mojave a day later than planned, leaving us with one day in Las Vegas. We hoped to visit with 4 folks there , and in one day we were able to see three! The first were our friends Ed and Shelly Clary. They moved to Henderson NV last summer from Grants Pass OR and already have their garden railroad well set up.

Here is the busy depot awaiting arrival of the passenger train.

Here is the bait shop. The boy is displaying his latest catch. Below is hobo jungle and next is the farm..
Rhonda was my legal secretary for almost 9 years in Phoenix before she moved to Las Vegas. We were glad that she was able to visit us in our motor home parked at Sam’s Club.
