Pahrump, NV

It should be named Gagging Stink Water.  Connect to city water.  Run faucet 2 seconds.  Puke.  The smell would knock a buzzard off a manure spreader.  In Wisconsin.  Sulfurous, like Yellowstone N P, but worse.  Shower with it?  Hell no!  But - it would insure physical distancing.  Thankfully, we carry 4 jugs of good water so we aren't forced to use the stuff for coffee or tea.

This is our second time here, not because it's anything special, just a convenient stop and a way to avoid the zoo that is Las Vegas.  The trailer park is old, sites are sardine-esque with hookups arranged such that you share your 'front yard' with your neighbor.  Which sucks.

It has some nice features though, including a spa, large pool and a water feature with koi and ducks.  We don't use public pools and spas, don't eat carp; I do like duck, though.



Pahrump has a Corvette owners school.  Vette owners can spend a week or so, driving with professional instructors, putting the pedal to the metal.  A couple of my friends have done that and loved it.  http://www.springmountainmotorsports.com/

Spent 2 nights in Gagging, then on to Tonopah, NV and Winnemucca, NV.
