February 2021 – Picacho Peak
On Saturday Jan. 30th we left Wilcox and headed west. Our destination was Picacho Peak/Tucson KOA Campground. Because most RV parks and campgrounds are extremely busy in February in Arizona we made reservations at this park for one month. It was in a convenient location close to the interstate and about halfway between Phoenix and Tucson. They also had WIFI, a pool and playground. First priority was Henry and school but we made time to visit nearby attractions.
