"Small town hospitality"

Pioche City Park was a perfect stop for a few nights in the Eastern Nevada area. The sites are long and level, and easy for any size rig to get into. Note that the sites have water and sewer hookups, but no electric. The surrounding... Read more

"Holiday weekend warning!"

We arrived the Monday after Easter to find the most trash-strewn campground we've ever been in. Apparently, it was a mob scene here for the holiday, so packed that you couldn't drive through, and 6 cop cars cruising around to keep things under... Read more

"Good one night stop"

Dateland RV Park was just right for one night's stay between Yuma and Phoenix. Pay first at Dateland Travel Center and then cross the road to the small RV park. It's mostly full-time residents, with about 20 spaces for overnighters. The... Read more

"Clean and tidy BLM campground; a litle tough to get to"

First, a major warning about the entrance road: not for the faint of heart! The road from Safford is paved and easy, but just as you enter Gila Box, everything changes. There are multiple steep 15% grades down into tight, blind curves, followed... Read more

"Close to Prescott, but feels like a million miles away!"

White Spar is a perfect base for exploring the Prescott area. It's just a mile or so south of town, but in the midst of quiet, dense woods. In the winter, roughly, Oct-April, the water is turned off, and the nightly rate drops from $14 to $10. ... Read more

"Giant overnight RV parking with easy access to Tucson"

When we stayed in mid-February, there were about 200 rigs here. The lot was well-lit and felt safe at night. There are a lot of trash cans around the lot, and they're emptied frequently. The RV parking area is near a concert venue, so you may... Read more

"Best boondock ever!"

There was very little online about the dispersed camping options in Cochise Stronghold, but we took a chance and checked it out. So glad we did, because it was one of the best boondocks we've ever found. The dirt road in is about 3 miles of mild... Read more

"Easy access to Tucson"

Desert Diamond is easy in and out overnight (or longer!) parking, and about a 20 minute drive to downtown Tucson. We stayed 2 nights mid-week, and another 2 nights over a weekend. Mid-week, it was pretty quiet, with just a couple RVs, and a... Read more

"Gorgeous views and great location"

We've stayed here twice--once in October 2014 for a week, and in May 2015 for 9 days. Both times, the campground was never more than about a quarter full. This campground is super quiet. The road is completely paved to the edge of the... Read more

"Great lot for overnight stopovers"

We were headed for Mohave Preserve, but huge thunderstorms popped up, and we didn't want to drive on dirt roads. A friend had mentioned Peggy Sue's 50's Diner, and we called to be sure overnights were ok. The answer is yes, but they are not... Read more

Quiet time in a Desert Oasis

Some weeks, I feel like I could write a whole book about things we saw, places we went, and stuff we did.  And other weeks, well, we just don’t have all that much going on.  In light of my still swo...

My four things and a very good boondock

When it comes to our health, JJ and I have instituted a lot of habits that now come easily, and are just part of our everyday lives.  We cook meals at home, eat lots of veggies, and get to bed early...
