Our Winter 2010-11 Trip Entry 2

We moved over to the Scottsdale Elks Lodge camp sites. They have 8 sites for Elks to use $15 a night. Our first Elks campsite but not our last. After we got set up we drove the VW to do some shopping. Wow, the shopping you have in a big city !

Had planned to go to a VW Show and swap but I blew it and we arrived after it was over and there were just a few VWs there. After that we did a few Geocaches and took Gordon to a Dog Park to play. Gordon had a great time at the dog park and didn’t care that we missed the VWs. On the way back to camp, we stopped at Walmart and bought a new radio for the VW since it has not been working for a while and I'm tired of Wendy's singing.
For dinner we drove to McCormick & Schmick's for another Free Veterans meal. None of these meals are truly free since we give a good tip & buy a drink or some other item and make donations to the DAV. Very good meal, then back to camp. By the way, surprise surprise, the Denver Broncos won another game.

Hi Wendy and Mike. We enjoyed reading about Scottsdale experience. We have left the homestead for the winter and after our first day of travel, are ensconced at Highway Haven RV Park for a Passport America rate one-nighter. Paddy
