I must admit that leaving Greg back in Montana this fall was difficult! As Christmas rolled around, we enjoyed shopping for gifts for him on the road, and were careful to mail our packages to him in plenty of time to reach his house for Christmas. But, the thought of him being alone on Christmas […]
Tonto National Forest…
Tuesday we took a drive thru the Tonto National Forest. We followed Vaughn’s cousin (actually his cousin’s son and his family) over the twisty road, and got to see some really neat country. Though I still have a hard time not laughing every time I see a National Forest sign out here – to us […]
Casa Grande National Monument and Ruins…
By 3 Comments
Yesterday morning we headed over to the Casa Grande National Monument Located in Coolidge, AZ. They have the only Jr. Ranger program, for hundreds of miles, that we have not done yet, so we HAD to earn those badges while we are in the area. Being parked for the summer must have put me all […]

Yesterday it rained lightly all day, and then it rained some more last night. This morning we woke to the most beautiful fog… It doesn’t seem to happen here often, and when it does, it is limited to a small area. The plants and rocks were covered with moisture, and the water droplets on the […]

This afternoon, Eli and Jake decided that they would like to hike the saddle. The fog had burned off, and the day had turned warm and sunny. The guys had Hannah drive them to the front base of the mountain, and they were off. the little boys didn’t make it quite this high 🙂 -though, […]

We stayed at Quartzsite through Sunday. When we put the slides in to leave, we found that one of our tires was quite flat. You know, the tires that were less than 2 weeks old… Vaughn and the boys took the tire off and decided to have it fixed instead of putting on the spare, […]
another rv remodel – adding a couch to a toy hauler
So, it’s no secret that I love a rv remodel! Well, maybe I should say that I love for the guys to remodel it while I get to sit back and give helpful suggestions (just don’t ask V if they are helpful 😉 This summer, I had been online several times looking for a type […]
rving in Quartzsite, Arizona…
Thursday we left Lake Havasu, and drove south to Quartzsite. Quartzsite is one of those things that you just have to try if you are an RVer (or so we were told). We came and spent a few days last Feb. to check it out, and it wasn’t really our thing. This year, since we […]
Lake Havasu State Park, AZ
By 1 Comment
We spent the last 3 nights at the Lake Havasu State Park, located on the western edge of Arizona about half way down the state. The Colorado River comes into northern Arizona (out of Utah), runs through the Grand Canyon, then feeds into Lake Mead on the edge of Nevada. After traveling south through the […]
Dec.6
We left Clark County Shooting Range today, and headed south along Lake Mead. The terrain around here all starts to look the same…We went across the lake near Davis Dam, and went north along the east side of Lake Mead because we thought that we would like to camp at Katherine Landing, which is located […]
