We woke to sunshine and no wind. It was glorious. We headed out down I10. One thing we noticed as we drove were the contrasts in the scenery. Here you can see the desert in between the mountains in the distance and the green shrubs and cactus in the foreground.
We saw this sign several times in the next few days. Glad there was no wind and we sailed right through. One thing we noticed were all the closed rest stops. Another change with the economy.
It wasn't long and we entered Arizona. The scenery stayed about the same as we rolled along. There were even more rest stops closed in AZ. Some of them appeared to have been that way for a long time.
However, the rest stop at Texas Canyon was not closed.
These were at a Flying J. You see more and more of these flowers all the way into Calif. The temps today ranged from 40 deg to 88 degrees. The diesel prices ranged from 3.04 to 3.17. Also Arizona does not recognize daylight savings, so we are on Pacific time even though we are in the mountain time zone. We tried out a new park in Casa Grande, which is a Passport America park. It is called Sunscape RV Resort. It is about 7 miles east of I10, but a very nice park and it only cost 13.50. You do have to call ahead for availability (9am to 12).
