Out of dog food (the three boys like to eat for some reason), hamburger, etc. Tucson in only 45 miles from here, but it seems as if we're there a lot. Even looked at buying a winter home in Tucson and selling the RV Tuesday week. Age beginning to creep up on me, not the RV. Have a safe trip one way or the other. The winter house, should we do it, would be a low maintenance condo in Gilbert rather than down here though. Our son lives in Scottdale.

If we follow I-10 (we are more likely to take US-70), we'd be passing Benson mid-day, stopping no sooner than Tucson. But we'll wave as we drive by...<br /><br />@JB -- we essentially boycott Van Horn due to their RV-unfriendly city ordinance. We tend to stay in the desert a few miles out of town and definitely outside the city limits. On this pass we've been seeing billboards for the historic Hotel El Capitan, which claims to be newly renovated and includes a restaurant, so maybe someday it will be worth a visit, but we really hate to spend our money in a town that clearly doesn't want it.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17930398671280529448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-68674504321012751012012-02-01T21:23:46.307-05:002012-02-01T21:23:46.307-05:00Will be interested to hear where you find to stay ...Will be interested to hear where you find to stay in Van Horn as I heard they are discouraging RV'ers staying there. Last year we asked and received permission to park in the lot of the Chuy's restaurant.<br /><br />Remember if you are needing a spot to hole up near Maricopa our place here "Dogpound South" always has the welcome sign out.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016073653349776611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-78259622389781331392012-02-01T18:20:14.588-05:002012-02-01T18:20:14.588-05:00Been informed we're going to show Fri not tomo...Been informed we're going to show Fri not tomorrow.

I'll buy you and beautiful wife a "Big A.. Beer" at Big nose Kates in Tombstone and a sandwich. A great place and good food if you like CW and loud. <br />Tomorrow, we go to the gem show in Tucson so Karen can restock her supply of teeny tiny beeds.<br />Ed Thomas mcrdrwi@hotmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
