So, we have been spending this last week in
Benson, AZ. We have stayed here a
couple of times, but it has been awhile.
So, we have been busy driving around southern Arizona getting familiar
with the area again. We liked it quite a
bit last time and what a surprise....we still do!
We drove to Davis-Monthan AFB/Tucson one day. On the second day, we drove to Ft. Huachuca Army Base/Sierra Vista and to Patagonia to see where we would be spending our winter. On the third day, we drove over to Casa Verde near Phoenix to see another Co-op park. That park wasn’t as nice as the one in Benson.
This Casita is my favorite one.

After all that driving
around, we decided to stay home to do a little resting and catching up on
everything. We did some walking around
the park, took photos of the Casitas that we liked the best.
The lots are very spacious and people do
quite a bit of landscaping.

We were
assigned a front row site and fell in love with the view. Across the street we were able to watch a lot of different birds along with the Quail. They really kept the cats
entertained.

We know we have not seen
all of the Co-op parks yet, but we decided to get on the Saguaro SKP's waiting
list here in Benson. There are over 300 people waiting to have a site
here which means it may take up to 7 years to get a site. In the meantime, we plan to keep looking at
the other parks. We might change our
minds and decide on a different park. We
can be on more than one waiting list. We
will have to wait and see.
