Benson, AZ High 80 Low 45
We are in Benson, AZ at the SKP (Escapees) Park for a week while we got exploring. Dianna is really doing great at learning everything including towing her trailer.
Last week my brother, Rob, his wife, Marie, and their 13 year old daughter, Meredith came to town. He’s my little brother as he is 9 1/2 years younger than I am. My sister is 8 years older than I am so we are a spaced out a bit.
Rob lives in VA but he also loves the Southwest. Marie had never been here and he wanted to give her a chance to experience it. They arrived Monday afternoon and had to go back on Friday (spring break for Meredith) so we didn’t get a chance to see a whole lot of them.
They got to do some exploring, visit a couple of museums, the Botanical gardens and I don’t know where else. Jim, Don, and Rob went to the Cubs vs the Angels game at Hohokam stadium. They really enjoyed that. Marie and Meredith went shopping.

They had great seats.
Their last evening in town we met up with them and my sister and her hubby at Joe’s Farm Grill. Retired Rod has written about it a couple of times and I wanted to check it out. Marie has a gluten allergy and I saw on their website that they had several gluten free entrees.
After dinner we finally got a chance to take some family pictures.

The sun was so bright and we didn’t have the right setting on the camera so the pictures didn’t turn out very good.
Tomorrow – Shoot Out At the OK Corral
nice visit with family!!! looks like everyone had a great time!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to have the family visit. Glad you had a nice day
ReplyDeleteah very nice, Sandie... Jim's imitation of the Hulk was pretty good! lol
ReplyDeleteEveryone looks so happy! Glad you had a nice visit!
ReplyDeleteLooks like your family has lots of fun, together. That's nice. So many family's don't have the closeness, especially when so far apart in age. I'm fortunate, too--my eldest and youngest are 8 years apart, but very close.
ReplyDeleteLove the last pictures of the three muscle men. LOL
We're waiting on lot #299. Tuesday morning we're in Sierra Vista, back in the afternoon. Wednesday, we'll take the MH for service, but we'll be back early.
ReplyDeleteCall us, if you want, at 520-591-5585, and we'll plan a get-together.
Nice family pictures - looks like everyone is having a good time. Have fun in Tombstone. I really enjoyed the shootout. I thought their Doc Holliday was one of the best I've seen (might be a different guy now).
ReplyDeleteYour little brother is massive.
ReplyDeleteI hope Joe's took good care of your food needs... It can take a while to wait in line for your food... its too popular....
ReplyDeleteVery nice to have family in town visiting, Spring Break sure goes by fast!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are definitely having fun!
ReplyDeleteIt's always fun to get together with family. Your brother sure is a tall boy.
ReplyDeleteHappy to see everyone having a great time in great weather too.
ReplyDeleteSharon
Sounds y'all have a fine time. Making memories...that is what it is all about.
ReplyDeleteLove the "muscle" photo.
Looks like you all are having a great time and your pictures turned out fine.
ReplyDeleteOh no! I hope that shoot out at the OK Corral isn't between all your family members!!! :cO
ReplyDeleteWow! Rob got all the height in your family!
ReplyDeleteWatch for stray bullets at the shootout. :)
Looks like you all had a great time...Love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat family pictures, looks like everyone is having a great time. My brothers are 10 and 15 yrs older than me. I am really the baby. I always said it was like having 3 fathers.
ReplyDeleteGood idea - it should be a little cooler there. Looks like you're having good family time.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it was a great visit. I would love to get together with my brother and sister at the same time. He's in Alaska and is thinking about heading south this summer. Maybe it will happen!
