Gas Pipeline
The gas pipeline goes under the campground, then up and over the Colorado, a few yards from my site.

My RV is almost directly under the gas pipeline running over the Colorado River.
Couldn’t completely avoid the snow, we had flurries blowing around New Year’s Eve in Laughlin.
If only I had a Tesla, I’d know just where to charge it up.
