Camp Verde, Arizona: Enjoying Another Beautiful Day


We decided to stay another day or so in beautiful Camp Verde. The weather today was just so perfect it was hard to imagine being cooped up in a motor vehicle.

We sat around reading, relaxing and enjoying each other's company. At one point Dobbie, on her leash, joined us outside while we relaxed in our lounge chairs. Mary Lynn was going inside and was going to take Dobbie in. Well the dog was halfway around her lounge chair with the leash trailing behind. Mary Lynn circled that lounge chair half a dozen times before realizing the dog was simply following her... around and around in circles; I nearly fell out of my chair watching the two of them.

Met a fellow Tiffin owner who also has the front engine diesel Allegro Bay. Turns out he and his wife went to Alaska a couple of years ago and he was happy to share some advice on where to stay, attractions, road conditions, etc.

In his opinion anywhere on the water is spectacular however he was not a big fan of the inland destinations. The land is just so incredibly vast. He also shared some info on travelling through British Columbia, which he found as beautiful as anything in Alaska.

We'll see; MLA and I are very excited about the trip. 

Looks like our son Scott, will be coming to Alaska in July to join us for a week. He loves to fish and, since we'll be somewhere on the Kenai Pennisula at that time, he should get to experience some of Alaska's best fishing. 

Went out this evening to take a few photo's however the sunset never really developed into much. Oh well, there's plenty of spectacular sunsets ahead of us. 

Hope you are taking time to enjoy the sunsets, flowers, etc. Or at least enjoying the time you are spending with family...

See Ya!
