2012-11-28 oh great - a detour off the highway2012-11-28 oh great - a detour off the highway2012-11-28 oh great - a detour off the highway

a long.....long.....and very slow...detour through roads you wouldn't believe and over bridges that were not made for all this weight!
Hi everyone.......hope you have all had a great summer season. Jim and I have decided to head west for our winter season. We love the Southwest (well, I love the Southwest - he 'likes' it, he is always telling me that only women 'love' stuff like that). We left CT on 11/26/12 (wanted to leave on the 25th, but the weather wasn't co-operating), and arrived to our first destination of Tucson, Az on 12/1. Our plans are to spend the month of December in Tucson, Az, the month of January in Quartzsite, Az, Februrary, well, we are not quite sure, but March, back to Tucson, Az. Somewhere in there, we hope to sqeeze in one or two daytrips into Mexico and 4-5 days to Las Vegas. To my Facebook friends: since you have 'followed' us along the way you know and have seen most or all of the following info & pics already. For my friends and relatives that are not on Facebook (what you are STILL not on Facebook????) Here is a little info and some pictures taken along the way. Hope you enjoy them.
