No leak move day

 Awake and moving at 7:30 this morning.  Going to be a busy morning and I want to get an early start.  It's going to be 88 this afternoon, so best do my work this morning.  Amazing how we went from cool to hot so fast, but I guess we are now near normal.  HOT!

Started my breakfast routine and tried to relax a little.  Took Yuma over to the Dog Park and on the way back checked for water leaks and it was dry!😁  The finger crossing did it or maybe it was Jerry's excellent work.  I owe Jerry and Elva some of my great grilling when I return next winter.😏

Right after breakfast Yuma and I took a shower.  I was so tired last night I just waited till this morning to get all the dirt off me.  I also called the RV repairman to let him know the problem is fixed and he needn't come by tomorrow evening.  Then we went over to wish Jerry and Elva a safe journey.

It wasn't long after, Yuma and I were also on the road.  We only have 30 miles to go so won't take even an hour.  We are headed back west to BLM land at Snyder Hill on the west side of Tucson.

Once I was on hwy 86, it wasn't long before large hills appeared 

and then we were there at 12:30.  Found us a site just off Old Ajo Hwy that was large and flat with a fire pit right near Snyder Hill.


As usual, Yuma was hesitant to leave the MH so I took him for a walk around the area so he would feel more comfortable.  You can barely see the White Lion through the trees.
It clouded up later in the day but still very warm.  I was thankful for the cool breeze.

The weather looks good for a trip to Mt. Lemmon tomorrow.  Excited to show you that 27 miles of views up to the top of the mountain.

Thanks for stopping by.

    It's wonderful that your leak seems to be fixed. That Jerry is a miracle worker. Looks like tou have a nice, quiet spot there. Mt. Lemmon will be an exciting trip. Can't wait to see what you find. Beautiful sunset.

    We've never been up to Mount Lemmon so I'm curious to see the views from up there. With those kinds of temperatures your in now I'm thinking the rattlesnakes will be out and about.

      Going to be clear today so I'm looking forward to the drive. Time for Yuma to be on a leash close at hand now.

    You will love Mount Lemmon's views along the way, along with the hoodoos. In the little town at the top is a store that sells cookies. If they are open, be sure and go in to look. Cookies as big as a dinner plate!!

    Glad you had a trouble free move.
    It's easy to drive around the outside of Snyder Hill on the road.
    Be Safe and Enjoy!

    It's about time.

    Even short moves can be exciting. Looks like a great flat spot there. There is so much for us to see so I sure hope we can come back in the fall. Mt. Lemmon, looking forward to the views. :)
    sounds like Jerry and Elva are godsends - doesn't surprise me one bit!

      Pretty good place but still can hear gunfire so Yuma is not happy. Another move is in the forecast. Sure glad for Jerry's help.
