You know you’re in the desert when you start seeing signs like this at the Rest Areas.

 We spent a few days visiting relatives in the area near Benson, Arizona.  They let us park in their yard.  We had a great time, but we can’t stay forever so we said goodbye and headed towards the Phoenix area.

Tonight we are in Sunscape RV Park, a resort near Casa Grande, Arizona, not far from Mesa and Phoenix.  There are relatives near here that we would like to say hello to before we get to Mesa for Christmas.
