On to Mesa

This morning we packed up Auntie Violet and left 3 Dreamers RV Park for Mesa Regal RV Park in Mesa, Arizona. It cost us an additional $19.03 for electricity for a total of $44.03 (we had made a $25.00 deposit when we arrived). We are so used to relatively cheap electricity in Washington State that $0.17 a kwh seems quite high. I sure am glad that I used the clothesline instead of the dryer all week!

We took Hwy 60, then down to Interstate 10 East through Phoenix into Mesa. We stayed at this RV Park last year when we met up with Juni and Tom who were here for a wood-turners conference. It's a total contrast to where we were last week. It's very urban with more then 2000 RV spaces, many of them park models.

We had barely gotten parked (a very tight back-in) and our slides out when the lady down the street was at the door inviting us to a "Street Party and Potluck" -- unfortunately we'll only be here a week -- and the party is in ten days. (We're using our CampClub membership which allows to only stay for seven nights, but at half-price.) We remembered from being here before that it's a very friendly place.

We made a long overdue -- and expensive -- Costco run this afternoon. I bought a couple of new shirts -- have some that need to go in the rag bag. Of course, it made Forry's day as he got to have his favorite Costco hot dog for supper!
