RIP Old Man Winter

A lot of people ask me, “Why do you go to Arizona in the winter?” It’s simple really, it’s the weather! This month we are at the Gila Bend Famcamp.

While other folks in the northern parts of the US are digging out from the last snow storm, chipping ice off their driveway, plugging in their engine block heaters, hauling wood, thawing pipes and sliding down the street doing donuts on the ice, well, we are in shorts, tank-tops and sandals playing Scrabble under our awning. Iced tea with lemon, humming birds flittering about, palm tree branches waiving in a balmy breeze, the smell of BBQ in the air and good company and well, you get the picture. RIP Old Man Winter!
