Bill

Campground:

One of my favorite campgrounds as of November 2019 for the beautiful desert landscape, solitude, night sky, wildlife, hiking, and golf. The campground is at the base of the Santa Rosa mountains on the south eastern edge of California. Just step out of the t...

9/29/18 to 10/2/18 Country Rose RV Park, Fredonia, AZ Grand Canyon North Rim, Paria

November 2, 2019

Campground:

Chimayo

This is an absolutely beautiful adobe mission from 1816 with a beautiful backdrop along a scenic road forming part of the route from Santa Fe to Taos. So – a must stop.

A nice write up about the historical aspect from the outside is here:

Ghost Ranch, Abiquiu NM

I can't recommend a visit here highly enough. That being said, far and away the best part was taking the [Georgia] O'Keefe Landscape Tour, for which you need reservations and may not be available in the future (see below...

Campground

The campground is on Cerrillos Road (Rt14) with easy access to downtown. We had a decent site with full hookups and wifi (no CATV).

Santa Fe.

For scenery, culture, history, food, and proximity to other interesting places, this seems to be Sandy and my consens...
