Tucson - Final stretch - 1st 2 weeks in March

We went to the Gaslight Theater to see Two Gun McGraw

 

 and just when you think it is safe, more snow!

 Tucson loves it and now we dontnhave to drive all the way up Mt. Lemmon to see it.

I take Tucson for a wall along the wash

 

It'sa Winter Wonderland

 

The snow melts and the Air Force starts practicing for the upcoming Air Show

 

We drive down to Green Valley to see our friend Marcia play Cello at her Church

On the way back we stop at Mission St. Xavier.  They have finished renovating the exterior

The Park has a yard sale and I sell seom of my rocks and flower plates.  A woman saw my painted rocks and asked me to make a Memorial Stone for a friend who passed away.

A final walk along the wash

We go to Jack Furrier to get tires checked and oil changed in car and RV.  While checking fluids they found water in the differential.  They said they couldn't work on it but recommended someone nearby.  We called and they said they might be able to squeeze us in tomorrow, we explained the situation and that we needed to get on the road tomorrow and they said to bring it on over and they would take a look at it.

Got to the shop and they looked at the differential and said it needed to be drained, cleaned and oil replaced.  Also said that had we driven it one more day it would have been toast.  A goods wink for sure.  

Had gone to Pizza Hut for dinner.  Found a coupon on the floor for a free car wash.  Went to the car wash and passed Jack Furrier on the way and called and got appointment for oil change for day before we were leaving.  They found problem with differential and sent us to place to repair it that was able to squeeze us in same day

Just about ready to leave

Tucson gets settled in his spot

and we are on our way.  First stop is Quartzsite to visit friends.  We pass by Picacho Peak.

Then through Gila Bend

Flowers are starting to bloom in the Desert

We make it to our friends,  Steve and Sharon's house

We manage a hike in the desert between rains.  

Hate to say goodbye.  Had a great time playing cards, visiting and eating good food!

Next stop Las Vegas.
