We have stayed at Joshua Tree National Park in the northwest corner at Black Rock Campground and thoroughly enjoyed the area. We explored the central area of the park also but never got down to the southern area. So we decided to go to Cottonwood. And they said it could

Parker, Arizona – Out and About
While staying at River Island State Park we realized our water pump was starting to go so my husband drove into Parker and bought a new one at Spankys RV. He installed it quickly before dinner that evening but since it was getting dark he decided to wait until morning

Yep, he is doing it again, looking for houses. Everywhere we go, it seems my husband wants to go house shopping, especially if it involves big garages. Hurricane has several new housing developments, one in particular, called Dixie Springs which has new homes with RV garages. It is located next
