We love Laughlin Ranch. This place is our second home and love every minute we are here. Best golf course, close to river and lake Mojave. My quiet heaven away from crazy So Cal.
Great meeting you and your family today thanks for coming into Shiver River.
Bitchin boat. Look forward to seeing you Friday.

My wife and kids love the shave ice. Great meeting you as well, and thanks for moving the truck for me. We are very appreciative of the hospitality. [emoji1690][emoji631][emoji16]

I am pretty sure the average lot sales price when the place first opened was around $200,000.
The nice lots are up there. We were checking them out. The nice lots behind us in Pegasus Ranch are ridiculously over priced too. And I won’t buy less than a half acre. If I’m going to get something it’s gotta be something perfect. We paid 200 for a bitchin house. Why would I pay half of that for the dirt behind me?

I hear ya Vic, I wasn't specifically talking about your situation just in general and comparing the lots to what they were in the mid 2000's. I am just saying that there are still opportunities to find good deals in Bullhead at least lot wise. The pricing is all over the place so you just have to find what you like and make an offer. I have seen nice lots on the golf course priced in the 70,000 and then you find a lot up the street that looks similar for over $200,000. As you know Bullhead has a lot to offer and in my opinion it is still rather cheaply priced compared to Havasu and what the pricing was in the mid 2000's.

I think Bullhead will continue to increase price wise as Havasu tops out. I still can't believe you can buy a nice condo on the water for less than $250,000 or a nice view or golf course lot for $50,000 to $100,000. My parents were offered $250,000 for their view lot in 2007 and they didn't take it so the guy bought the lot next to them that didn't quite have the same view but was still nice for $250,000. That lot two years ago sold for less than $50,000. It probably would have been perfect for you since it was almost a half acre. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/...d-City-AZ-86429/104035218_zpid/?fullpage=true

Golf course bunkers are crappy, been that way for at least 5 years now! Keep telling me under construction. With weeds growing out of them and hard as concrete!

The golf management company Troon golf has the course looking amazing. They have been managing the course for the last year, producing great results earning the course #12 best golf course in AZ for 2019.

Just curious I was over there at the grill eating and noticed about 30 asses on the course. Does that hurt the course at all? By the way Thursday is prime rib night.

I don't think they hurt the course. Big terds that are picked up, but that's it. We love seeing the burros out their on hole 18 at around 4pm everyday. Yes, great deal on the prime rib Thursdays. Also, awesome Sunday brunch.

Remember the good old days in Bullhead/Laughlin when you could get some good BBQ and a punch bowl full of your favorite cocktail. What the hell happened to Mark Twain's six years ago to make the Colorado Bell close them down. Straight Up Bullhead if you ask me.

If I remember right the price was ridiculous too. Something like $8 for the glass & drink. Then a refill was around $5. :D
Exactly. You felt like a beer, no problem. Captain and coke?? No problem. But the best was the wooden shack outside on the Riverwalk and getting a hurricane as it was all bottle pour and no machines!!!

Lazy Harry's??
Yep, they cleaned all the junk away from the riverside windows.. The lagoon has flowing river water again which cuts down on the saw grass that fouls / clogs intakes... Good ol' Lazy Harry's.. I spoke to Loretta a couple of months ago, (Memorial Day weekend), and she is spending most of her time in Vegas, and to quell a rumor, "Lazy's is NOT for sale"...

Let me qualify my experience by first stating, that most of the time I have ordered food via Doordash that the delivery has been earlier than estimated and the delivery drivers (Dashers) have been as professional as you would expect someone doing a Doordash type side-gig. Now with that out of the way we have the "Straight Up Bullhead" version of the Dasher. What I call the "Shitshow". BTW...if you want to try your luck with Doordash or if you just want to roll the dice to see if you can get the "Shitshow" here is my invite to get $20 off ($5 per the next four deliveries) your order through Doordash. https://drd.sh/f4ChYU/ :D

I will start with a little back story, I love Bumbleberry Flats: good prices and good food. If I am not at Shiver River getting a Kong Burger and or a Root-beer Shaved Ice (another awesome place btw) I am at Bumbleberry Flats getting a Pulled Pork sandwich. Going forward, within the last month I noticed at Bumbleberry Flats that they had a Doordash sign so I said what the heck I will give it a try (I have never used any of these delivery services before). I was thinking, on the lazy days we can just kick-back at the pool and I don't have to go back to the condo and BBQ. Nothing better than kicking-back at the pool and eat some Bumbleberry Flats. Well, we ordered through them 3 or 4 times and everything was always perfect.

Then last weekend I unknowingly get a brief introduction to the "Shitshow". I decided to order via Doordash before I went out to pick up some groceries from Safeway (I figure cool, I can kill two birds at once). So, I am shopping and I get a text from the Dasher that she can't pick up the food because there is a fire on the Laughlin side. I know the fire is no where near the restaurant but hey maybe she has asthma or something so I just shrug it off and text her back to credit the refund back to my card. I go get some fast-food on my way back from Safeway and I take it home. When I get home, I go to my computer and they still have the order going since she never canceled it. Whatever,... I call the new dasher that Doordash has reassigned my food delivery to and the guy is going completely out of his way to make sure I get my order. So I figure I don't want this guy to get screwed I won't cancel the order I will just eat Prime Rib Sliders for lunch the next day.:D The guy tells me the original dasher just didn't want to pick up the order so he had to reorder the food and pay with his Doordash card. wtf...

So fast forward to this Saturday, my girl decided to order something via Doordash and the "Shitshow" is her Dasher. I warned her that her food was probably going to be late. In the app or the website you can track the Dasher via a map. I watched the "Shitshow" pass our condo complex and go to the mobile home park about a quarter a mile down the road. She texts my girl and said she is at the mobile home park office with the food. My girl texts her that we are at the condo complex and to just follow the detailed instructions that we left in the app to get to our condo. She finally gets to the complex (20 minutes late) and my girl picks up the food and she tells me the Dasher is just a complete mess and her car has shit everywhere inside of it.

Today, I decide to get some food via Doordash and the "Shitshow" is my Dasher. I think about canceling my order but decide to give her another chance. So, I am tracking my food and I notice that she picks up my food and then starts heading in the wrong direction and then stops for about 10 minutes. I then get a text for her and she asks what hotel the restaurant is in...I am thinking you were just there the day before WTF. Then I get another text and she asks if I am in a hotel, apartment or a house? Again, I am thinking you were just here yesterday...W...T...F... Sure enough she is over 20 minutes late and she explains to me that she is late because she had a drop off to a hotel and the people never showed up. Then I look at her car and she has a sticker on it that say Postmates. So basically, what she is doing is working for another company while she is supposed to be delivering food for Doordash. I give her a hand trying to double dip at the same time but I won't be using the "Shitshow" again.

I never really thought about it before and never really had a reason to use these companies at home but at the river it seemed like a good idea and convenient. The first two guys I got were really a good. One guy was the local mailman. He was a really cool guy and I ended up chatting with him for a while. He works as a Dasher for fun money, to pay for the concerts he wants to go to in Las Vegas. He told me he knows everyone in town and would be a good source for referrals for local trades, he even gave me his cell number. The other guy lives across the street from the casino and he does the Dasher deal to just get him out of the house and keep him busy. But yeah, eventually I got the one.:confused:

I'm sure there are plenty of good ones, but my concern is the ones that can't get a real job for obvious reasons.
