Days 24-36
We like breaking up our RV adventures this way rather than staying on the road for a lengthy period of time.
On the way north from Fort Huachuca we stopped at Watson Chevrolet to have the chasis of our Sunseeker Class C motorhome serviced. Even though we haven't driven many miles, it's been two years.

At first we weren't sure they had a service bay large enough for us, but we shouldn't have worried. It's a big dealership with the largest service area I've ever seen. They even had a lift big enough for us.

| Large and private Site #A-45 at Catalina State Park. |
Catalina has many walking, hiking and riding trails to enjoy. There's even a horse camping area with stables. We met Samson on one of our trail walks. He knew lots of tricks to use for children's parties.
Picacho Peak State Park
December 11-13: Our next stop was Picacho Peak State Park, 36 miles to the northwest. On the way we stopped at a Fry's grocery store to pick up the last of our provisions.

On one of our walks, we discovered the location where they used to conduct annual reenactments. That would have been fun to see.
Budget cuts and Covid put an end to them. Here's a video from 2001.
Do you travel by RV? How do you handle your trips?
Nice to be out and about. More covid restrictions here in Ontario, moving backwards instead of staying the same!!!!
ReplyDeleteSame in BC so we decided not to cross the border between Part 1 and Part 2 of our Snowbird adventure. - Margy
DeleteMargy - we have never traveled in an RV, but we can see it in our future when we are no longer as physically fit. For Christmas, I gave my hubby a book of U.S. road trips, and we have been reading it and dreaming. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your travel buddy, Margy. Many years ago, my sister who since passed away and her husband converted a big bus and traveled across the States that way. They had many happy adventures, which she wrote about in travel magazines.
ReplyDeleteThis sound like it would have been so much fun 40 years ago. Now nearing 70 and well out of shape, I suspect it's not a great time to begin the adventurous life.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2022/01/some-seasonal-memories.html
Thank you for visiting me! A happy New Year to you both! Only know Arizona from driving through it. We stayed a night in Phoenix - really like that place!But from what I heard about the heat there, gives me second thoughts:) I would like to live near Sedona, but it's expensive there! Maybe we should stay here in TX for a while ...haha.
ReplyDeleteThat's very clever to have the RV stored in the area of the country that you are going to be using it the most rather than hauling it cross country so ar.
