Move to Tucson

 Sometime in the night I made the decision to get out of the grasslands.  They are calling for a week of wind and below normal temperatures so it was time to go down the the hill to warmer weather.

This morning started out with beautiful clear skies and a little cool but already windy.  Tom and Deb had already packed yesterday for their move to Sierra Vista, not far southeast of here.  For our farewell coffee we met in the White Lion.

While we were talking I saw a red flicker over Tom's shoulder and there was Red coming to say goodbye.  Didn't want to scare him off so took the picture through the window pane.  Goodbye to Red till next year😍

Tom had to say goodbye to his best doggie friend and at 11:30 he and Deb were out of here in a cloud of dust.

At about 1 o'clock it was my time to leave.  Made it through the hole pitted road past the Empire Creek and the Willow trees.

Then past the Empire Ranch and the cattle in the pasture and along the road.

Turned right at hwy 83 heading north and through the Santa Rita foothills down a couple thousand feet towards Tucson.

It was only 30 miles to our new home at the Pima County Fairgrounds RV Park so it didn't take too long.  We arrived at 2:30.

Been here a couple times before and it is a nice place to prepare for the long trip home.  We have a one week reservation so I hope to visit places around Tucson I haven't see before.  I also want to work on my leaky pipes while I have full hook-ups too.  

Got everything connected and was happy that everything worked as it should.  Yuma and I just relaxed for awhile and I took him to the dog park to check it out too.

For dinner, it was a quick cheeseburger and chips with dip.  I took a nice long hot shower to get rid of all the dust and dirt I collected from the strong winds while packing the White Lion.  It's already 9 o'clock and time for bed.

Thanks for stopping by.
