We left Tombstone and began our 424 mile, 9 hour trip through New Mexico for Van Horn Texas. We picked up a hitch hiker and dropped him off in Lordsburg where we got stuck at the gas pumps behind a truck that locked their keys in the ignition. After a short stop to see the worlds largest roadrunner made out of garbage in las cruces, we continued on through El Paso where we stopped for supper. Tonights RV park was to be a KOA for $40

Day 47 – Bisbee and Queen Mine Tour

9 Comments / Bisbee / By Rob

Bisbee Arizona offers a great place to spend the day on a walking tour. The art community dearly love their little town and enjoy sharing it with tourists. Visit the Queen Mine and take the tour, sample some chocolate made directly from the cacao bean, climb the many sets of stairs or wind your way through the narrow passage ways. We enjoyed our whole food meal at the High Desert Market (twice) and after a full day said to ourselves “we could so easily live here!”

Shady Dell RV Park In Bisbee Arizona

3 Comments / Bisbee, RV Parks / By Rob

The Shady Dell RV Park in Bisbee is actually a vintage trailer park that has some RV hookups. Featuring vintage trailers from the late 1940’s and 1950’s, the park acts like a motel allowing you to rent trailers from an era gone by. It was photos of Dots Diner we saw in Bisbee that grabbed our attention. Once seeing them, we knew we had to get some shots ourselves.
