Enjoying our time at Voyager…

The weather has been great since we’ve been here, high in the 80’s which is warmer then usual for this time of year so we, especially Dave doing his laps daily, have been enjoying the pool and the hot tub.

It’s also been nice walking around Voyager and seeing flowering bushes.

I’ve been going to stretch and strengthen exercise classes . . . .

And doing

We got here about two weeks ago and have been laying low and just really not doing anything outside of the park, but one place we went was Cane’s cause we like their chicken, especially Dave. It was yummy!

Some of the carts in the parade.

Sunsets are like desert emojis with all those fiery colors.

We’re headed to Tucson our last stop…where Saguaros outnumber Skyscrapers

On our drive to Lordsburg we went thru Hatch NM. As we passed through I took these two pictures. The Hatch man and Sparky’s.

Hatch has world wide fame because of their Annual Chili Festival held on Labor Day weekend. The event draws an estimated 30,000 visitors from all over the world.

The Hatch New Mexico Chili Festival has a variety of activities, including fresh chile roasts, a parade, live music, food vendors, and competitions like a chili eating contest.  They say the festival celebrates the unique flavors and cultural heritage of Hatch chiles. It began in 1971 to promote the region’s chile harvest. 

The Lordsburg KOA. We’ve stayed here before on our travels.

We drove 158 miles to our stie # 55

While I was taking a picture of this old phone booth at the park, I was thinking……I’m taking a picture of this phone booth with my phone. Who would have thought ??

We arrived at our destination 2 days ahead of schedule. We drove a total of 149 miles from Lordsburg to Tucson with a grand total 2,170 miles for the whole trip. Good driving Dave.

This will be our 4th year at site 7-282, as you can tell we like it here.

I was really excited to arrive earlier than expected because I got to to the the annual Halloween Dance!

The Raw Band played good dancing tunes.

I was to busy dancing to take pictures of the other ghosts, goblins, zombies, etc. It was good time had by all.
