Hello from Sunny Arizona

Here we are in AZ in our motor home on our lot in Happy Trails, Surprise AZ. We have had a good time here in the southwest. Did some touring in the Tucson,AZ area which was quite spectacular! Spent time in Quartzsite AZ visiting friends and exploring the desert in their ATV which was one of the highlights of our trip. We enjoy going to various lakes here in this area. Lake Pleasant, Bartlett Lake, Saguaro Lake, and along the Apache Trail out of Apache Junction east of Phoenix. There are several lakes on this road. One of our favorites is Canyon Lake. We will be leaving here around April 22, 2010 and heading northeast to Moab, Utah for about a week, then on to Zion Nat. Park to meet our neighbors, Mary Jo and Rick from home. We plan to spend 4 days with them looking over that area, then head northwest toward home. Should arrive near the end of the first week of May. I am certainly missing my grandchildren!! I am thankful that we can Skype with Elly, Ryan, and Peggy, but that is just not the same as giving them all big hugs. It has been a great trip so far and wonderful seeing all the many friends we have here in Happy Trails.
