The news was coming fast and ugly every day. Parks were closing everywhere and we were concerned about finding places to stay. I was very tempted to go find a spot in the desert somewhere and hang out, but...family duties called and it felt right to go home.
So sadly, we decided to head home and traveled through 5 states in 6 days.
2400 miles
These are the parks we stayed at.
All these parks were very nice and low priced. We looked for RV parks knowing that many States were closing their state parks. We lucked out that Arizona did not close.
We started from Ponchatrain Landing in New Orleans.
Shreveport KOA, LA
Wichita Falls, TX - Tornado watch, thunder and lightning at night.
Blaze in Saddles RV Park, Tucumcari NM. This place also has horse hotels. (Fenced areas for horses) several horse trailers pulled in for the night. The horses were beautiful. They were on their way home to Wisconsin after spending 7 weeks in AZ at rodeos and trail riding.
Homolovi SP, Winslow AZ. A beautiful wide open place in the desert. I really tried to soak up the peace and space.
Newberry Mountain RV Park, outside of Barstow.
Home
I look at this map and see how close we were to my main destinations, Florida and the gulf coast. Another time...another time.
