Settling in at Cattail Cove State Park, Lake Havasu City, AZ

After a very fun time in the Las Vegas area, we left today and made our way to Lake Havasu, AZ. The drive was pleasant and easy and we got to the Cattail Cove State Park campground around 3PM this afternoon. We had reservations for site #53, which is very large and set off from the others so it is also quite private.

The only downside to this campsite is that it is extremely unlevel. So there we were again, putting the front wheels up on wood so they would not be off the ground when we raised the front end with the leveler jacks.

After much huffing and puffing, and more than a little cursing, we got the motor home situated. The camp host lent us some additional wood because we did not have enough. We will make a trip to the local Home Depot tomorrow to get more wood.

Anyway, this is a really nice campground and I would be happy to stay here again. Despite having to put the Dolphin up on blocks, site #53 is still the best. The campground is immaculate, nicely laid out, and sits on Lake Havasu.

Regarding the issue with the noisy and reluctant Power Gear leveler jacks: I did a little research on the manufacturer's website and discovered the jacks should be greased every 20-30 uses. Interesting... the printed Power Gear documentation that came with the motor home makes no mention of this!? Sure enough, when I scraped off the road grime around the leveler jack cylinders, I found a grease fitting on the bottom of each one. Guess I'll buy a grease gun tomorrow.
