"We went looking for music in the desert, and we found it! Sideman Jamboree."

We’re back at SKP Saguaro Co-op (second visit within a month) for a few days to regroup, stock up on groceries, do laundry, and of course, visit with friends.
We love short drive days – Just 88 miles! Found ourselves back at Patagonia Lake State Park, a place we enjoyed last spring.
When we returned to Tucson, we decided to visit Biosphere 2, which is about 30 miles north of town. Biosphere 2 is now a research facility owned by the University of Arizona, and they offer tours daily. We found that the tour was quite interesting and we enjoyed it despite the large size of our tour...
Top Photo: View of Tucson Mountain Park from the trail. Lots of good hikes can be found here.
"After two weeks out of this park, we decided to return for another week. We just love the Tucson area!"
We've been on the road full-timing since February 1st and are now back in Arizona. This is the final update for our 2014 maps. Watch for a new 2015 map and new adventures!

Wow, a 308-mile day – that’s big milage for us! But well worth it with a view like this from our campsite overlooking Ajo Mountain. Time to chill.

Park of the Sierras SKP Co-op. Member-owned RV park just outside Coarsegold, CA
Short drive day – 99 miles. We thought we would go a tad further, but pulled in here and liked it. Gotta love the views!
Spacious private campground (4 sites) run by the community's property owners association for folks visiting members of the community. Very nice.
Found a Forest Service Campground that's still open. A lot shut down for the season in Sept/Oct. The campground is located on the Sacramento River just outside Red Bluff, CA.
Besides the good wines we sampled in the tasting room, we enjoyed watching the sheep, geese, chickens wandering around the grounds.
Landed once again at Allied Recreation Group in Coberg for warranty work. When we got to the "wet" side of Oregon, we discovered that we had a leak in the slide.
