After more than seven weeks in Mesa Spirit RV Park, in Mesa, AZ, we were a little sad to leave. We had the good fortune to meet Lowell and Hania and their two beautiful doggies. Thanks to Lowell, I have a great start on a new hobby, woodturning. With some encouragement from Joani, we now have a lot of new equipment in the basement to support that hobby. I think she is looking forward to turning some treasures as much as I am!
The boys warmed up to me with a little ear scratching but treats sealed the deal. Every time I visited they got a little of my attention.

When it was time to leave, all went well until we tried to pull in the bedroom slide - it was dead. After maybe thirty minutes of unsuccessful troubleshooting, I manually cranked the slide in with the help of several neighbors. As you often hear - "It's always something".
It was past check-out time, so we put the slide out of our minds, filled the propane tank and headed to the North Ranch Escapee Park near Congress, AZ. It was a pleasant drive of only 102.4 miles (71,387.9 total).
We were meeting fellow American Coach owners, Loren and Sharon, in Congress before heading to Quartzite. Loren's brother owned a lot in the park with room for both coaches, so we just overnighted in the dry camping area until we figured everything out. Good thing we got that propane - it was in the 20's overnight! Welcome to the higher elevation desert. Looking forward to the increased temperatures in the long-range forecast.
