Today is our last day at Rincon West RV Park and if we are going to stay in the Tucson area any longer we needed to search out another Passport America RV Park. We made a call to our extended warranty company to see when the inspector was going to show up and we were told we should receive a call today. So after breakfast we headed out to check out another RV Park we'd been told about - Voyager RV Park.
After we arrived at Voyager and checked with the front office on their availability and pricing we drove over to the pull through area to check out their sites. We had just finished walking around deciding which site we liked best and had gotten back into the truck when Rich's phone rang. It was someone from Robson Ranch Headquarters responding to an email Rich had sent the evening before asking if their preferred guest stay special pricing at Quail Creek was also available at Saddlebrooke Ranch and Robson Ranch. Yes it was and when did we want to arrive and which facility did we want to stay at? We decided instead of staying at the Voyager we'd much rather stay at Saddlebrooke Ranch and they had a vacancy for tomorrow. Wow was that timing or what. So instead of moving to another RV park, we are heading to Saddlebrooke Ranch tomorrow for a 4 day/3 night stay in one of their "guest houses". We are looking at this like a little mini vacation. I know we are retired, why do we need a vacation? =)
We got back to the RV and got a call from the warranty guy and made arrangements for him to come out for the inspection this afternoon. Sweet, things are working out. We spent a bit shining everything up and I was just going to head for the pool when we got the call that he would be arriving in just a few minutes. So much for pool time today, oh well, I know you feel real sorry for me.
The inspector arrived and was very nice and personable. It is so interesting to see how the locals dress versus the winter visitors. We are in shorts and a tank top and the inspector is dressed in a long sleeve shirt and jeans. He said they don't even consider it hot until after it reaches 100 degrees. We passed the inspection with flying colors, so now we can get our extended warranty going. I'm not usually a big fan of extended warranties, but since we are full timing and the 5er gets so much use, have decided that it probably will be a good idea to have an extended warranty in place.
After the inspector left we just kicked back the rest of the afternoon and evening. We did take a walk around the park looking at all the park models. This park has tons of them and the ones for sale range from $15,000 to $50,000. Some of them are quite old, probably from when the park first started. In talking with some of the residents, they all just love it here because they have so many activities and things to do. We like the park OK, the pull through site is very nice, but it wouldn't be the place I would want to live year round. The one thing we don't really like about this park is that they really restrict the areas you can walk your pets. They only have a couple of streets that we can walk Gracie on, so when we want to walk the whole park, we have to leave her home.
