Our time in Las Cruces was up today, so after an early breakfast, we packed up and got on the road. Cathey was unhappy with the cold nights we had experienced in Las Cruces so we are hoping for better weather in Arizona. Cathey usually goes to bed early because the probability of pain rises as the day goes on and it wears her out. Consequently she is ready to get up at 4am and watches TV or reads; the furnace does not give us enough heat to be sitting for that length of time when the temp outside is in the 20s.
We didn’t have reservations anywhere in Tucson, so Cathey called the KOA in Benson, AZ and they said they had room for us there. I think the mileage from Las Cruces to Tucson was about 275 miles and to Benson, about 50 miles less. The trip was uneventful, just the way we like it, and we arrived at the Benson KOA at about 4pm. Setup takes less and less time since I have had so much practice at it, but this time they threw me a curve ball, in that the water supply was so close to the ground that I had to change the location of my water filter and put it on the trailer end of the hose – no biggy.
Cathey picked up some literature at the KOA office about Tombstone, AZ sights and the reenactment of the Gunfight at the OK Corral – she is looking forward to seeing that.
