Destination - Arizona
It was 12ºC and over cast this morning and over cast when we got ready for our trip to Tucson.
We were on I-10 by 8:30am. The drive was interesting, highway was good and the land was flat with low mountains in the distance. The elevation was 4395 ft.
A short time later we were directed through an Inspection Station with a sniffing dog. The Border guide asked if we were US citizens.
This trip had a few themes.
Signage: Dust Storm Warnings - five sightings in NM and AZ
Silver City Art Centre – North of I-10 on 180 NM
Akela Flats with an Exon service station Ex. 102 NM
Butterfield Station (Exon) Ex. 62 near Gaga NM
Continental Drive at mile 49 NM – Elevation of 4572 ft.
The Thing in between Wilcox and Benson AZ
Trucks with Ads
Walnuts, Pecan and Wineries – at Bowie AZ
Cactus, Washes Dry Rivers and Desert.
Texas Canyon AZ – rocks elevation – 4557 ft. East of Benson
We made one pit stop. Arrived in Arizona at 10:45 and stopped for diesel at San Simon AZ 4K Service Station.
When passed through Benson we noticed the many RV Parks. We will have to mark this area for future destination and winter stay as Tombstone just South on AZ-80.
As we neared Tucson we noticed that the trees had leafed out making the view greener. Even the cactus were blooming.
We checked in for one night at Tucson/Lazydays KOA $39.95/night, leaving the truck hooked up.
So until next time remember to "Discover It and Live It".
