Gary and Shannon's in Tucson

When we arrived in Tucson, we had to go to Freightliner to have a steering column cover replaced on the coach. We had a faulty turn signal in Illinois and they replaced the turn signal, but the cover was broken, so we asked them to order a new one and we arranged to have it replaced in Tucson.
As soon as we were done there, we called Gary and he gave us directions to their home. We finely arrived at their home and Shannon had prepared us a great dinner, we visited for a while, made some plans for the next day, and then called it a night.
It was so beautiful up at Mount Lemmon, we loved it there. It was my Birthday so we stopped at a little place for drink. At the "Cookie Cabin" we split a great big cookie and enjoyed some hot chocolate, and of course a birthday song !!! We had a great day up at Mount Lemmon and decided to head down to Tombstone the next day.
Tombstone is about an hour and a half drive from their home, but the time went by fast, we were talking and laughing all the way. As soon as we arrived in Tombstone, we stopped at the Boothill Graveyard on the edge of town and checked it out. Then on into town.



Wow, that was another fun day. We loved it there, and had so much fun with Gary and Shannon. We were all tired by the time we finely got back home.
They have a great home, and they even have a great place for us to park our coach right outside their door.

We had a wonderful time in Tucson, we had a great time with Gary and Shannon, as you can see they have a beautiful home there, and we are looking forward to coming back for another visit.

Now we are headed toward Phoenix and will be going to Cummins there to have our engine checked out, it seems to have an oil leak coming from the bottom of the engine somewhere (maybe the oil pan we had replaced last year), it throws oil all over the back of the coach and the car too when we are towing it. We plan to call our friend Gina Minkin and see if we can get together for dinner while we are there.
