Old Town San Diego State Historic Park

Old Town San Diego State Historic Park

Several years ago, Gary and I visited this historic area, but there is so much to see and do that we were ready to go check it out again.

San Diego Zoo and it's Animal Ambassadors

This was not my first visit to the San Diego Zoo, but the last visit was about 15-20 years ago.

For Gary, it was a first.

Balboa Park - "Where Culture and Nature Meet"

Though we are staying a month in San Diego, there are an overwhelming number of choices on what to see and do.

Leaving the AZ Desert in the Rearview Mirror

It’s been quite a while since we did an RV trip outside of southern AZ.  Usually we plan a trip for summertime – when we are more than ready to move to cooler climates. Last year we had to postpone our usual migration due to a freak accident Gary had while barbequing (resulting in a shattered collar bone, surgery, etc.).

Organ Pipe National Monument

Leslie and I are busy working with the Green Valley Gardeners at the Desert Meadows Park project.  A big upcoming event for the club is the annual garden tour where community members can visit a variety of types of local gardens.  This year in conjunction with the tour is an Art in the Park event.  Vendors will showcase art, photography, and a variety of plants.  In addition will be a silent art auction to benefit the ongoing activities at the park. 

We did get a chance to caravan with some friends on an RV getaway to the Organ Pipe National Monument in SW Arizona.  It was a great three day trip.  The weather was warmer than expected (90 during the day) for a stay with only limited generator time, but the beauty of the desert was worth it.
