Go, See, Do, Experience!
This was a shorter Travel Day of just about 170 miles or so, from Deming, NM, to Socorro, NM. Passing Truth or Consequences reminded us of Autio (footnote 1) telling us about the game show and how the town changed the name from Hot Springs to Truth or Consequences for the TV game show. It...

Travel Day to Deming, New Mexico It is scary to think about the signs along the freeway (and highways, it turns out) about the blowing dust in this area. There are several signs in order and they tell you to not stop in the driving lane, turn off lights, feet off the brake, stay buckled... Continue Reading →
Tombstone, AZ When researching for what to do I found that Tombstone had Tombstone Days this day, including a parade and lots of extra activities. Kevin looked at YouTube of the parade in past years and saw it wasn’t crowded and so wanted to go to it. Well, that morning was so cold. At 8:00... Continue Reading →
For our exploring day we headed south, drove through Tombstone, and then up the mountain to Bisbee, Arizona. We stopped in at Copper Queen Mine and Bisbee visitor center where we picked up some area information and then drove the 1/4 mile to the downtown area. The town looks like the old shops and lots...

It is funny, but true…when you are packing up to leave, it seems like everyone around you comes and talks. We have read other people say this and it is true for us as well. The guy next to us, Kevin had briefly chatted with the other day. He has a motorhome here. He is... Continue Reading →
We were surprised how big Casa Grande, Arizona, is. Even has an Olive Garden! HA Manufacturing is huge in this area and it is neat to see the buildings and names and think about what is being made inside. This campground, Encore Fiesta Grande, is really nice. Wide streets, wide sites with parking for truck... Continue Reading →
We enjoyed the Winter Blast Fireworks so much that we decided to come back next year. We also want to do Quartzfest (ham radio) again that is held at Quartzsite. We were the only ones leaving the RV camping spots at the SARA Park rodeo ground, Lake Havasu, AZ, as campers can stay for the... Continue Reading →
I sent out this text to a few people a few weeks ago: Today marks 3 years since we have been full-time RVers traveling the country. In these 3 years we have stayed over night in 43 states. As we start year 4, we continue to love this lifestyle and are thankful for all we... Continue Reading →
Water Irrigating Canal, San Luis, AZ 02/25 Colorado River State Historic Park in historic downtown Yuma, Arizona. The admission to the museum was $10.00 each. The ranger was very nice, gave good instructions to Kevin with a map, and then went to check if the films were captioned. Yes! This place gets an A. We... Continue Reading →
As you know, dear reader, our blog posts are usually around 2-3 weeks after it happened. They come from my travel journal but it takes about 1/2 a day or longer to whittle it down to be "small" so as not to bore you. 😃 Well this current week, I have been having a blast... Continue Reading →
