RIP Bitter Betty

Nov 29/16  Weather Sunny but Chilly  - daytime 60 nighttime 32 - yikes!!!!
The temperatures have now dropped to 10 degrees below normal for the next few days.  Of course this comes right at the time we have an appointment to be in Tuscon with the motorcycle..... well we put on every piece of leather and layers and gloves.  The temperature when we left the park at 9:30 am was 47f.  Thank goodness the sun was out and no wind.  About an hour and half later we were sitting in the shop in Tuscon having a cup of coffee. 
Poor old Bitter Betty bit the dust.  She was our Motorcycle GPS.  We nicknamed her Bitter Betty cause she could be a real snoot when giving us directions!!!   We do so much riding and in some back country roads which really necessitate having a GPS - especially for the times when we get lost.  It happens!   Today Tuscon Harley Davidson hard wired our new Garmin into the motorcycle.  Kind of an early Christmas present for us both.  What shall we call our new girl?
Merry Christmas present to Billy and Rosey
Lucky for us we have some McGregor RV Park friends in Tucson.  The Calverley's picked us up for lunch so we could share some RV tales over a burger.

One unique landmark you see between Casa Grande and Tucson is Picacho Peak.  It looks like a volcanic neck in the distance and can be seen for miles.  The State Park has many hikers that attempt to reach the top.
