Running the Gauntlet!


Ah! We are settled in tonight at the Desert Trails RV Park just outside of Tucson.
After a good night’s sleep, we’ll head into town Monday to take care of business before crossing the border bright and early Tuesday morning.
The trip through California was fairly routine as we followed the familiar route down I-5.
We enjoyed lunch and a good visit with friends in Fresno on Friday and spent the night near Bakersfield in the Orange Grove RV Park. Larry wsas disappointed that the oranges weren’t ready for harvest!
The drive Saturday included maneuvering the freeway maze in and around San Bernardino, which was a nerve-wracking challenge - LOTS of FAST traffic and confusing interchanges! We FINALLY made our way out of the congestion of SoCal into the peaceful desert to the east, toward Yuma, where the weary Taylors regrouped and spent the night.
Sunday was an easy trip to Tucson. After a beautiful sunset, it was a fun surprise to look around the RV Park and see Christmas lights twinkling on many of the trailers!
