I was going to title this post “Tucson in the Rearview Mirror.” But I realized that when I’m hitched up and rolling, the only thing in my rearview mirror is Flo!
My stay in Tucson this time wasn’t exactly what I had been hoping for. I had a doctor appointment that was canceled and I didn’t get the repairs done on Flo that I had scheduled. And, it was heartbreaking to have to put Walter down. But, his time had come, I made an appointment with a doctor in a town I’ll be in shortly, and at least the parts for the repair came in. Now I just need a little help getting them installed.
And, I was parked right next to a lemon tree at the KOA in Tucson. They encouraged me to take lemons, and you can see that I did!
I made it to Alamogordo, New Mexico last night and got into my campsite at Oliver Lee Memorial State Park just as the last bit of twilight was fading. No further damage was done to truck or trailer.
I will be reporting on some places I was last month as well as keeping you up to date on where I am. Look for posts about Lone Pine, California and Joshua Tree National Park, as well as White Sands National Monument. I sure am lucky to be able to see all these marvelous places.
Thanks for coming along for the ride.
Great picture and post. Love reading all about your travels.
Thanks, Clare! You’ve had quite the tour, as well! Can’t wait to hear more.
Hi Kim, were you able to avoid the storm? It sure looked threatening.
Cheers, Andy.
Andy, it did look threatening, but luckily it moved off. I also think that the contrast with the sunlit portions of the photo made the sky look more ominous than it really was.
