tnank Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Ron & Linda We're planning on starting in Natchez in the later part of April and going to the end. We haven't decided where we will dip into Texas. If we get near you guys we'll give you a holler.

JoeandMarcia Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 LOBSTER FEST ?????? Sounds like something I might enjoy, and because our daughter in NYC will be out of school during the month of Aug we might just be in the area. Right now we are parked in a small CG called Betty's RV Park in BEECH Island SC. They said it was OK to wash the rig, WOW what a change from the west. I guess we will spend the next week washing the rig, inside and out, maybe we can save enough of the sand from the AZ desert to build a castle. We are hoping to meet up with Bob and Molly in a couple weeks on the east coast. Anyone in the area give us a call, I am always looking for an excuse to eat out.

landrypatti Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi folks! We are inDeath Valley Nat'l Park. It is beautiful! The mountains & desert here are different than anyplace else we have been before. The spring flowers are blooming too for a bonus. We are at Furnace Creek Ranch near the Visitors Center, because they have full-hookups. That means air conditioning which we like & our dogs need. It was 92 when we got here yesterday & cooled down last night to around 70. There are a lot of things here to see & we look forward to our 5 nights here.

JoeandMarcia Posted April 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Patti: You are not making things any better. We are sitting here watching the liquid sunshine fall from the sky. Death Valley is one place that is on our list of places to see. The boondockers meet up there in Oct for the start of their winter gatherings. Enjoy it any try to see as much of it as you can.

norahg Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Hi Patti, I have heard that there is NO cell coverage in Death Valley. Is that true? I was hoping we could attend the encampment in November, but we can only do it if we have cell coverage. Glad to hear you are having a good time. We are outside of Phoenix until tomorrow when we start heading towards New Mexico.

tnank Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Norah If you have to have cell coverage stay away from Monument Valley Ut. We had nothing with our Verizon phone or air card. But Oh what scenery. We just left New Mexico and taking a slow ride Livingston.

landrypatti Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Hi from beautiful, sunny, hot (92) Death Valley! Marcia & Joe, sorry your sunshine is liquid. You have to put this place high on your list... Hank thinks this is the most beautiful national park we have been in so far. We've seen Scotty's Castle (take the underground tour too if available), the Ubehebe crater, walked into Titus Canyon, & I did Golden Canyon. Today it is Badwater & Artist's Palatte & ??? Norah, There are NO cell service coverage areas that we have found. But the visitor areas like Scotty's Castle & the Furnace Creek Ranch area have pay phones. If you are staying at Furnace Creek Ranch which is privately owned, you might be able to have an emergency phone number /contact person that would fit your needs. Enjoy NM... the northwest part is beautiful. I've been to Bandolier & Soda Dam. There are many other places to visit & enjoy. If you've never been there you are going to love it too. For traveling phone needs we have MCI phone cards that we have had to rely on for daily calls. They are at a very low rate & have worked for us. Everybody be safe & have fun!

chiefneon Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Howdy! Trisha, The Pumpkin Patch RV park in Hermom is one of the best Passport America CG's we stayed in during our travels. We stayed over two weeks at the park waiting for our house to sell last year before going to Canada. We're on the California coast now just spent a few days at Malibu RV Park over looking the Pacific coast. We scooted into Los Angeles and Hollowwood to see the sites. Yesterday we moved up to Pismo Beach to Oceano CG State Park.

marty cassidy Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Dental work done, and a great tour of the less-known birding areas in SE AZ, I'm back at San Joaquin Road with Cowboy Les, Professor Jim, and Brent the radio guy. Plus a few others I haven't met yet. There was a rain shower today, but in general temps will be in the 90's this week. For those that headed north two weeks ago, I TOLD you it was too early I'm hanging down here for another few weeks, maybe going west to the Lagunas before I head northward.
