Monument Valley Scenic Byway


 
The road to Monument Valley was a beautiful drive.  We stopped many times to take pictures because the scenery everywhere you looked was so gorgeous.  The owner of the campground we stayed at in Bluff, UT told us to drive to Goosenecks State Park.   We took pictures of one of the "goosenecks" of the Colorado River.  She had a picture of all three goosenecks on the wall of the campground office.  We decided the only way to get that picture was from a plane. 
 
After we left the Monument Valley area we headed south into Arizona.  We stayed at an RV resort in Camp Verde, AZ which is less than 100 miles south of Flagstaff.  The resort was owned by the Indian tribe that also owned a casino close by.  The resort had top ratings and we had to admit it was a very nice park.   We went from Camp Verde down toward Phoenix and then cut over west to an RV resort in Wickenburg.  We got as close to Phoenix as we ever want to be -- the traffic is terrible.    After visiting some friends in Sun City West and up in Prescott we headed farther west to Quartzsite.  We are parked here until the first part of November.  The new park that we are working at this winter is still under construction and we've been told they are two weeks behind schedule.  So we will have an extra two weeks of vacation before we start working again.
