What we did!

This is the blog of our 12th Trip to the U.S.A.
On this trip we arrived in March and spent a week with our friends Connie NA Jim at their Bluegrass Party, in Florida.
We then flew to Phoenix, where we collected our rig and then explored Southern Arizona, from the cowboy city of Tombstone in the East, to the desert City of Yuma in the West.
Travelling north along the course of the Colorado river we visited the London Bridge at Lake Havasu before exploring the Mojave Desert, including some more of Rout 66 and Calico Ghost Town.
Moving North West through California we shared in the CBA Bluegrass Campout in Turlock, before visiting Bodega Bay to follow The Birds. After sampling the delights of the Napa Valley we joined in The Fiddle Convention at Cloverdale before storing our rig and returning home after seeing some friends in San Leandro, near San Francisco.
This blog gives a day to day record of many of the things we did on this trip.

March 18th - Patagonia Lake State Park and its birds

Monday
We are now camping for a second night at Patagonia Lake State Park. A pretty lakeside campground up in the Coronado Hills, south of Tucson, about 15 miles from the Mexican Border. We have had a very relaxing day. we had a ramble round the campground this morning seeing lots of different birds, Hummingbirds, Orioles, Gold finches and hawks. One of the RV's here has a whole load of bird feeding stations and a couple of chairs with a notice to invite anyone passing to sit and watch the birds for a while, so we did.
Tomorrow we move on to Tucson to test the delights of that city.
