Camp Verde, AZ visiting Dave & Trish

Wednesday the 24th we traveled 88 miles to Camp Verde and the Western Horizon membership park to visit RV friends Dave & Trish Wood.  The last time we saw them was 2010 at the Grand Canyon while we were with Clayton & Pat.  Dave & Trish went to Camp Verde while we headed east to Meteor Crater.   They liked the Camp Verde area and work camped at the Western Horizon park a couple years until Dave had some significant health problems.  They sold their truck & HH and bought a home in a 55+ community across the road from the park.

 
There is an 18 mile down grade from about 6500 feet to 3000 feet.  It has been in the 90s while we are here.

                                                    Home sweet home for 4 days.

We got to visit with Dave & Trish each day and yesterday we all drove to Jerome, an old copper mining town which is now an artist colony, I think, and a tourist destination.  It's up a steep mountain and the streets are very narrow and twisty.  It has been raining today and we plan to leave tomorrow, the weather should be good.
