New Years, Christmas, and Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument

Campground at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument

We checked into the Valley View RV park at Benson, AZ on December 20th where we spent the next two weeks through Christmas and New Years.  We did not do much in the way of tourist type activities.  The park had nice parties for both holidays.

After Benson we traveled south to Sierra Vista where Ina attended the Korean Baptist church.  We spent several days at the Fort Huachuca Post RV park, a very nice park with concrete pads and full hook-ups.

In planning to make it to Quartzsite for the Escapees Boomerville and the Big RV show, we found Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument was conveniently not too far off the route to Quartzsite.

Although the national monument campground was a no hook-up camp; the sites were awesome with very picturesque desert flora and plenty of room between the sites.  We spent several days there taking lots of pictures.  The park rivals Saguaru National Park for scenic beauty.

Organ Pipe Cactus

Also lots of Saguaro Cacti

Unfortunately I'm way behind on the blog postings.  Hope to catch up in the next few days.  We broke camp and headed north for Quartzsite on January 9th.
