Moving Day!  

I know I'm weird, but I always look forward to moving day- getting ready for that next big adventure.  We have been here in the Quail Ridge RV Park for a month now- arriving on the 27th of February from Ajo, AZ.  Our goal was to see a lot of what this area (SE Arizona) has to offer- and there is a lot to see.

We have managed to see at least some of:

Fort Huachuca

Sierra Vista

San Pedro Riparian Area

Fairbank

Tombstone

Bisbee

Naco

Nogales

Tubac

 Tumacacori Mission

Patagonia

Amerind Museum

Pima Air & Space Museum

Chiracaua Nat. Monument

Ramsey Canyon

Presidio Santa Cruz de Terrenate

And lots more...

So overall it is a very successful and busy month (did I mention fun?)

This morning we leave Quail Ridge for Yuma and our long trek north, to our winter home in Oregon.  Our route will take us up Arizona 90 to Interstate 10 north and west before jumping off on to Interstate 8 west, for the rest of the way.  The route we are taking will take us north through Tucson- then further north to Casa Grande, before we get to the turn off for Interstate 8.   After 4 hours of Interstate we will arrive in Yuma.  ( I started to say 4 grueling hours - but you all know by now- nothing is grueling about chewing up miles in a cushy motorhome like this one)

By 4:45 we were tucked into our space here at Sans End RV Resort, enjoying a cool libation on the patio with our friend Mark Lankford.

Rough day.

Tomorrow we will do some exploring around  Yuma.
