2/12-2/19 - Verde Valley Resort, Cottonwood, AZ

Yummy Eats on the Train!
Ken and Charlene
Steve and Pete and the giant margarita!
Holly
We come back to this campground to meet friends Ken and Charlene, and Holly and Pete, to go on a Verde Canyon special Chocolate train ride!  The scenery is beautiful, the chocolate desserts are great, and the company is fantastic!  After the ride, we have a great Mexican dinner and Steve tries the gigantic margarita!  He even gets all of it down!

We also take the opportunity to take the truck back to the folks that put on the trailer bed on the back.  They get the fuel line back where it is supposed to go, and now we can fuel up without being up on blocks!!!

We have a wonderful Valentine's Day dinner with Ken and Charlene!  Great friends are WONDERFUL!!!!

We also toured a place called Arcosanti, which is a concept community where the multi-use structures are built high, and everything is close enough to walk to.  It is currently inhabited by about 50 workers who craft the ceramic and brass bells that are sold to finance the community.  The architect studied with Frank Lloyd Wright in the 50's and wanted to merge architecture and ecology as a way to maintain a neighborhood.  Very interesting!!
