Tucson, Arizona - January 21-30, 2008
We arrived at Rincon Country West RV Resort and within an hour, we met our neighbors, joined them for drinks outside and were invited to a champagne brunch on Saturday. WOW...we could get used to this resort real quick! The people we met here were awesome! The set-up was different from any place we've stayed. The sites are set up in a square around a grassy courtyard with one RV parked on each side, so it's real easy to visit with neighbors. These people were so incredibly friendly. It was real hard to say good-bye & I sure hope our paths cross again. (Don - thank you so much for teaching Bailey how to climb out of the RV. Now we have to remember to close the door or he comes running out! Bailey really enjoyed playing with you! And we hope Jan's ipod is working okay.) George thought he had seen it all when we went to Roswell, but soon found out Tucson had a lot to offer! We spent 
one day driving down to Tubac, a small historic village on the Santa Cruz River with tons of little shops. If Karen (my sister) had been with me, we could have done some serious shopping! The weather was gorgeous & we had a great time walking around the village. The next day we drove down to Tombstone (another dream come true for George!) and watched the shoot-out at the O.K. Corral. Who were the good guys? It was really hard to tell! Walking down the streets of Tombstone really made us fee
l like we were in the Old West & me without my boots & spurs!! If Tombstone wasn't enough excitement for George, the next day he went to the Pima Air & Space Museum. Not only did he get to tour a retired Air Force One plane, he
toured the Boneyard. No, it's not a human graveyard, but an airplane graveyard with about 4,400 planes resting side by side. Oh, the glory of it all! We ended our sightseeing in Tucson by visiting the San Xavier Mission. The inside of the mission was as beautiful as some of the cathedrals we've seen in Europe. Oh, and the champage brunch we were invited to attend....was incredibly delicious! There was everything you could possibly think of to eat for breakfast as well as the OJ & champagne! To our new friends from Rincon Country, thanks for your hospitality - may we meet again some day! Farewell to Tucson...we're off to Mesa!
