Goodbye Tucson

A little before 10 a.m. we were on the road. Our hope was to be able to spend some time at the Escapee RV Park in Benson. As it is a co-op, we knew we were taking a chance on space availability. We got to the park and there was a sign outside saying the park was full with the exception of boondocking sites. We went inside and spoke with the office. We would have to be on a waiting list for a spot with eight people before us. Did not look good so we opted to move on down the road.

We decided to try out a RV park near Tombstone that we had heard was a nice park. Tombstone Territories RV Resort is very nice with all sites being pull-thru's (40 x 80). The one thing that surprised us is that the weekly rate does not include electricity (in 14 months of traveling, this is a first for us). It does bother us that we are paying $14 more this week than last but also have to pay electricity on top of that. The RV park does have a pool, spa, and other activities but we will have to see if the park is worth the money to us.

John went out to heat up the BBQ and quite a while later, the BBQ was heated but John was gone. I went outside and started cooking. Thank goodness for cell phones. I called John to track him down and he sheepishly returned as he was a couple of sites over talking. I'm glad I went out to start BBQing or we would have used up a propane tank without ever BBQing anything. Jeez!

There is an informational meeting in the clubhouse tomorrow on Cochise County that we are going to attend. Hopefully, we will learn a lot about what to see and do here. We'll keep you posted.
