Leaving the Valley of the Sun


Arizona Sunrise

6438.jpg We are a few days away from leaving Arizona.  I get excited about moving to a new spot.  California here we come.  I’ve had fun so far here in this Valley of the Sun, I hope everyone enjoyed the birdlife and pictures we posted during our stay here.  We never made it to the Red Rock country just a hundred miles north.  I guess you just can’t see it all with one stop.  You can count on the fact we will return to Arizona in the future.  We are still getting our bearings in this new life style.

Learning the ins and outs of our new life on the road.  When I think of how far we have come since leaving the old Permafrost Ranch.  I’m kind of surprised by the amount of changes that has come to pass.  We are still adding equipment needed for the RV.  Things that make this moveable home a little better and more comfortable for us to live in.  Little things like wrap around step covers similar to astroturf to get the dirt off ones feet before getting inside.  Vent Covers, that keep the rain from coming in,  if you accidentally  leave your vents open while visiting family only to return to find your bed and floors wet.  Wheel covers for when one is parked to keep the sun off the tires.  Yes, it’s a learning experience.

There is so much more I could and will write about but I don’t want everyone to be bored to death by long postings.  Just like above, I could expand the list of stuff one has to acquire to live comfortably in a RV.  It’s almost never ending.  Just like this journey we are on.  Hopefully, never ending for the Nomads of the North, on the road, looking for squirrels and nuts across the USA

Cease & Desist

Posted in: Arizona, Rant

The live cam and feeders will not be on until we get to another park.  We received a cease & desist order on feeding the wild life and birds while we are in this  Pioneer RV Park, in Phoenix Arizona.  The note from the RV staff said they had received several complaints.  Before we got the notice from the management of the park, the neighbor behind us yelled out his back door, to quit feeding the birds, because they were shitting everywhere.  So as of now there is no more bird seed to put out and the live cam will be down.  As I walk around this beautiful park and see all the others who have bird feeders out, I wonder if they too have to quit feeding the birds.   I suggest not staying here if your looking for a RV park that is people or animal friendly.  You can bet, we won’t ever stay here again.

Flicker, or WoodPecker?
