An RV Resort and an Observatory

Nov 7 to 14/17  Benson, Arizona .....Weather is sunny and warm.  80's plus for the next week (even 86 one day) low 50's.  Open those windows, in the desert you don't need the A/C;  when the sun goes down it cools right off.  Perfect weather.

We are going to hang out for a week here since the weather is so nice.  We stopped before in the middle of winter and it was a bit chilly at night almost freezing since the elevation is over 3500 feet.   
There is the most unique campground here.  Butterfield RV Resort; it just happens to have an Observatory on site with 2 resident astronomers.  Free nightly shows.  Really ???    Now that is a feature you don't see often; we can say this is the only place in the US or Canada we have seen a park with an onsite Observatory.  Pretty Cool.
