00:00 Intro
01:46 #1 Gouldings in Monument Valley, Utah -
Why we love it - the views are amazing, and private hiking and walking trails right at the campground.
What to know if you go - internet service and cell service are poor in the whole region. Plan on being “unplugged” for most of the time.
Things to see: The Forest Gump road, Mexican hat, etc.
03:56 #2 Disney’s Fort Wilderness, Orlando, FL
Why we love it - the whole Disney experience is top-notch! Lots of things to do and it feels like you are in the woods.
What to know if you go - book way in advance especially around peak times like Christmas, Halloween, etc.
Things to see: rent a golf cart and drive around the campgrounds (or ride bikes) - Disney parks and transportation (ferries, etc).
06:08 #3 Pacific Dunes RV Oceano, CA
What we love about it - The dunes! These are amazing and you can climb them and head to the beach or sled down the dunes, it’s amazing!
What to know if you go - The Campground itself isn’t anything to write home about, but the dunes! Also, it’s part of the Thousands Trails system, so if you are a TT member that’s a plus.
What to see/where to go: Climb the dunes! Santa Cruz within a 30 min drive, Pismo Beach, the cinnamon rolls from Old West Cinnamon Rolls
09:06 #4 Watchman Campground Zion National Park
Why we love it - The views! Close and easy access to the shuttles (when running) and hiking trails. We walked down to a creek and played in the water.
What to know if you go: Only water and electric sites, and there is a dump station, also it was a tight fit with a 40-foot rig and our Jeep on the site.
What to see/where to go: Hiking, scenic drives - The Narrows is a bucket list item and we are glad to have done that with our family!
11:20 #5 Ramblers Rest Campground
Why we love it: Convenient location to Gulf Coast beaches, near Sarasota FL
What to know if you go: It’s a Thousand Trails park - so if you are a TT member, bonus! You can also stay at Thousand Trails parks WITHOUT being a member! I get discount codes often in my email so make sure to sign up for TT emails.
What to see/where to go: Casperson beach - look for shark teeth, Venice beach, Siesta Beach, Sarasota. Tons to do in this area of Florida!

US 191, Historic US 666 North - The Devil's Highway - Wilcox to Safford, AZ
Welcome to the Devil's Highway. At least that's what it's been nicknamed. Today we travel part of US 191. This segment of the highway runs from I-10 near Wilcox - where it was multiplexed with the interstate - to the city of Safford, a small city in eastern Arizona or about 10,000 people. Along the way we pass through small town and junctions, namely Swift Trail Junction, home of the Swift Trail/Safford Federal Correctional Institution, and near Fort Grant, a former Army fort turned State Prison.
US 191 gets it's nickname from it's predecessor: US 666. US 666 was originally a minor 135-mile highway running from Gallup, NM to Cortez, CO, established in 1926 with the initial signing of US Highways. It became the 6th child route of infamous US 66, which served as it's southern terminus in Gallup. It was given this number since all the odd-numbered (indicative of a N/S routing) child routes that would have fit in the system were taken.
US 666 saw it's first of two extensions in 1938, when it was extended south and west into Arizona, co-routing with it's parent to the town of Sanders, where it dipped south. This road remained dirt when it met and joined existing SR 61 to continue south to Saint Johns where SR 61 ended and US 666 met US 260. They continued south together, meeting with and joining US 60 itself just before Springerville. Just past Springerville, US 60 spilt off to head east into New Mexico while US 260 and US 666 continued to south to Alpine where US 260 split as well to head towards Silver City, NM. US 666 then followed the Coronado Trail, one of the most scenic and beautiful routes in western America.
It passed through Morenci and Clifton, ultimately coming to a T-junction with US 70 just east of Safford. From there, US 666 co-routed with US 70 into Safford, then split off to head south where it met SR 86 between Bowie and Wilcox. It again co-routed, this time with SR 86, to the town of Cochise. There, SR 86 split to head to Benson where it met with US 80 and US 666 continued on a slightly meandering path to end at then US 80 immediately west of Douglas.
The route from Springerville/Eager to Safford was originally SR 71, established in 1927. The segment from Safford to Douglas was originally SR 81, established the same year. In 1936, SR 71 was deleted and SR 81 was rerouted up to Springerville, ultimately extending along SR 61 to Sanders. Two years later this was transferred to US 666.
In 1992 Arizona requested a new number for US 666 in the state, asking for it to become part of US 191 for continuity and partly because the signs were very commonly stolen. At this time, US 191 was relatively new to the state having just been extended 11 years prior from Yosemite National Park as part of making US 191 into a 'National Parks Highway'. It was brought south to Chambers, AZ where it ended at I-40. The proposal was to have it multiplex I-40 to Sanders, then replace US 666 from Sanders to Douglas. The request was approved and US 666 was dealt it's first blow. In 2003, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah, asked for a similar change, proposing that US 666 be deleted in it's entirety in favor of US 491. This was approved as well, making US 666 the most recent decommissioned US highway in America.

Safford (so much more) Arizona
We had a wonderful stay in Safford, we stayed at the Roper Lake State Park and were very impressed with the quality and space available to us. We had a huge site - drive through and power and water with a very tidy and convenient dump station near the ranger station/exit.
The views were unbelievable and the sunsets even better.
We took time to go and look around the area, Chiricahua National Park area to the south, the Morenci Mine Area where they have open pit mines for copper extraction and they are huge, bigger than I thought possible.
We were introduced to GeoCaching by our friends Keith and Linda and are enjoying this adventure of finding locations and rummaging around for the cache a lot of fun. If your travelling full time - research the geocaching - see link below:

Panoramic Views from Majestic Mount Graham, Arizona
I had the privilege of working in Safford, AZ from January to March of 2022. I had marveled at this Mountain God that towered in the backdrop night and day while in Safford. I just had to fuel up the Denali and go for an adventure!
At the highest peak, in Graham County, Coronado National Forest and the Pinaleno Mountains, Mt. Graham stretches 10,724 feet into the sky.
Mount Graham summits are headwaters for numerous perennial streams that tumble through five major botanical zones. Located between the southern Rocky Mountains and Mexico's Sierra Madre Occidental, and biologically isolated for millennia, the higher elevations have provided refuge for relict populations of plants and animals with adaptive strategies rooted in Pleistocene ice age environmental conditions.
Of particular note are stands of the oldest conifer trees in the U.S. Southwest and associated habitats for threatened and endangered species, especially the Mount Graham Red Squirrel. [Wikipedia]
The Vatican even has a high-powered telescope perched atop this giant. I just had to see the view from the top and I will tell you, she didn't disappoint!
