Looking For A Lull

I knew I'd love it out here but I didn't realize how much.  It's awesome knowing that you will see the sun, you won't have to shovel, and tomorrow will be amazing.  The sunrise and sunsets here are spectacular almost every day and the mountains change color making the landscape appear different every time you look. I'll take this time to dump a bunch of pictures.  I apologize for any duplicates. Rex Allen statue in Wilcox Plaque in front of the Rex Allen statue.  His horse Co Co is also buried in this park. Rex Allen Museum and the Marty Robins Museum Rex's first guitar from the Sears Catalog.  He decorated it himself. The Cowboy Hall of Fame is also part of the Rex Allen Museum. Another Beautiful Sunset. The Birdcage theatre in Tombstone Tatonka!

We have had no issues with boredom since we came into AZ.  There has been plenty to keep us occupied.  We've looked at trailers, visited nearby cities, tasted the local cuisine, and found all of the shopping nearby.  Here is a taste of some of what we've done! Here is the campsite.  You can see I have the cell tower up. Mi Casa.  Local place for Mexican food.  It tasted even better than it looks if you can imagine that! Tombstone, AZ  This is the court house "Down town" Tombstone The weather is nice enough to sit outside in the sun! The Donk is wore out from walking.

Made it into AZ and spent some time getting familiar with the area.  We found some good food, located the closest shopping, and made a list of places we'd like to visit over the next few months. View from our new "Sunday Brunch" spot Sunrise! Sunday Bloody Mary! Campsite

The story of this trip is the weather for sure. Last night in Missouri we had Tornado warnings and high winds and tonight in New Mexico we are expecting sudden snow.  Crazy! 

We hit the road this morning at 3am and made our way to Springfield Missouri.  We got in at a decent time, set up camp, and then decided to go get a bite and do some shopping.  Dinner was awesome.  Looking forward to seeing some old spots from when i was little tomorrow and maybe some new ones too!

Our time in Michigan has been good so far.  I've gotten to see a few friends and Karen has been spending time with her Mom.  The weather has not been too bad except for some rain and wind yesterday.  It's cold but I'm able to stay warm in the trailer. Time has been moving quickly and we will soon be on our next leg of the trip, our long drive to Springfield, MO.

Well, we made it to Michigan and the white stuff has now mostly melted away.  We are watching the weather closely to make sure we are not going to get stuck here.  Right now there looks to be a slight chance for some flurries this week, with the largest chance of snow later in the week.  We just need it to hold off for a week so we can start putting some distance between us and the frozen north. Staying in the trailer for a week before we left was very helpful.  I was able to make sure that I had everything that I needed, fix some minor issues and identify some things that we may want to change.  The trip down was pretty uneventful fingers crossed that we get down to AZ with no major issues.
