As we prepared the FS II to depart Tucson the next morning we got a couple of cool shots on the evening of the 10th of April looking west from our site.



The one above almost looks like it could be done of a pyramid in Egypt and the below picture really was pretty spectacular. Temperature was about 80 but the humidity an unbelievable 7% ... crunchy.



The reason we left on the 10th was that Camping World had gotten our new awning (left rear here) and could install it that morning. They did a super job in the time promised and for exactly the amount promised ... first time for everything I guess!



After departing Tucson we motored up I-17 and then State Highway 69 through uninteresting northwest Arizona for 220 miles until we got tired and ended up in the little town of Dewey ... yep look it up.

Here's our quarters for the evening ... not really but an interesting entrance item at the Orchard Ranch RV Resort which sits at about 5,000 feet altitude.



The park bragged about its nice wide and long pull-through sites and we got the biggest which was way too short to keep the car attached but fortunately wide enough to park beside. Also the ditch in front of the bus was so deep that there was no way you could pull forward anyhow.



In the morning I backed up and then we hooked the car on when we got to level paved ground. And we were off to Las Vegas.
