Cascade Canyon on the Durange Colorado train
Hello, I keep trying this blog and finally it works! Today was awesome! We rode a train to Cascade Canyon (made in the 1800's). We ate our lunch, watched the river rush by, and look at some of the most beautiful countryside I've ever seen. It was totally awesome! I took so many pictures, but had to cut out a few. There was a couple on the train that sat near us. You think I TALK??? That woman can talk! I loved lunch just to be able to take a break. She was very interesting and very ADD/ADHD! There was an open car so we could go outside and take the most beautiful pictures. Here are some of them.

Grand Canyon
Hello Everyone!
We are finally at a place, Cortez Colorado, where I can actually have internet and work on this blog! It is quite cold and windy here. Glad to be stopped and in my nice warm RV! 29 degrees tonight!!!
We have talked to the KOA Ouray where we will work next week, and there is still snow all over the place there. We'll have to park across the creek until the snow melts away. Ugh! Oh well, I work inside with Reservations and the Store so I'm good. Burl is doing security, but not until we have people!
I have to say that the Grand Canyon is beyond words. I always saw pictures and it was pretty, but now that I've been there, walked a little in it and around the South Rim, I am amazed! I have my pictures on Snapfish, but will put a few up here. Some of my favorites.

Okay, We are finally in a coffee shop that allows free internet! We are in the Grand Canyon and it is unbelievable. We are with friends, Jane and Jerry Riley, from Lakeland, FL but are also full-time RVers.
Our first day my back was sore from an early adjustment. So this was my first sight of the canyon.

Greek Orthodox Church... 
Casa Grande National Monument
Where the Indians slept
More Saguaro
Hi Everyone!
We are finally back to our original post. Hope you all enjoy our times on the road. We have left New Mexico and are now in Arizona. We started off in Tucson and that was a nightmare! The site they had us in was hardly as big as our rig! That spells Catastrophe! But all in all we are fine but were so glad to get out of there. However we did see some wonderful sights. For example, the Saguaro National Park. We have also visited the Living Desert and Zoo which is so fascinating. I would add pictures, but the Internet Explorer keeps kicking me off when I try to add pictures. Maybe one of you smart people out there will be able to give me some clues as to how to get rid of Internet Explorer!
Another fun place we went was Tombstone. We visited the Boot Hill Cemetery and then went to a local saloon for some lunch and beverage.
In Tucson we also saw San Xavia Plaza and the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum. I have pictures of all of these. Hopefully I'll find a way to show you.
We are now in Casa Grande, which is half way between Phoenix and Tucson. I think we have found our retirement place when we get off the road. It gets really hot here in the summer, so we'll head East for the summers. The kids will have to share us :)
We were planning on staying here a few days but it will be about 10 when we leave on Saturday. We'll head to Cottonwood, AZ to the Dead Horse Ranch State Park. We'll be there about 5 days and then head to the Grand Canyon. Maybe by then I'll be able to add pictures to my blog.
Keep in touch. My email address is: djpart1230@yahoo.com or djpart1230@gmail.com I no longer have Facebook as it caused me 18 virus' and cost me $400! Have a great week!
