We spent the morning doing a little packing. It was only 15 miles from our Haeckel Rd. camp to the state park and we never had a lot of gear outside anyway. Then a walk out to the west and south from camp just to wander about a bit. Couldn’t check in until noon at the earliest anyway.
After lunch we headed to the park. Did our tank dump, refilled the fresh water, took showers 😁 and then walked around the park meeting people and dogs. One woman has a golden resembling Skye very much. We talked with her a couple times. Cathleen lives in Mesa AZ with Lucylu. She camps in a little Scamp camper. That’s a 10’ camper behind a compact car. She told us about a women’s group she belongs to called Sisters on the Fly, about 10,000 women who camp and do all sorts of activities.
Another couple in their 70s from Gilbert AZ, south side of Phoenix, have a small car and a tent. They were in a cabin today but they travel extensively and often use the tent quite happily. They’ve been to Vt and all but a couple of states.
This evening it is still warm, 64°, although I’m back to flannel shirt & jeans. But sitting outdoors until 7:30 feels awful nice. Some locals are saying it is very unusual weather for early February.
Off to boondock south of Tucson tomorrow. Only 185 miles.
