Diversity everywhere

 As we continue our journey and are now slowly making our way across the US from California to Florida,  it couldn't be more obvious how different each state is from another.  There are the obvious COVID19 safety standards.  In California people obey the 6 ft. distance rule inside stores.  In Arkansas,  not nessesarry!  In New Mexico we got to finally enjoy some dancing; outside at our favorite winery. It was wonderful!   Amaros Winery in Las Cruces,  NM Seeing familiar faces             The one way isles in stores don't seem to exist in Arkansas at this point. Leaving me feel almost normal, if it wasn't for the dreaded face mask. In Oklahoma people mingled mask-free at the RV park and helped us with our broken down truck, Covid or not.   Our spot at the famcamp in OKC Enjoying a walk around the adjacent pond  We just heard that Florida lifted its face mask mandate.  Can't wait to see what the new but also old normal of seeing faces will be like. Wait! Lipstick 💄?   I

        Tinker AFB        Famcamp   Oklahoma City, OK 🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩🛩 This small grassy RV park truly is a little gem.  We loved 💕 that it is surrounded by trees and trails and has its own pond, that adds charm.  The laundry facility deserves special attention!  The charge per load for washers and dryers is an unheard of .50 cents per load and the daily rate for RV parking a very reasonable $ 20 per night 🌙 (as of Sept.  2020)!  With a gas station and Domino's pizza 🍕 next door you have some basic conveniences within a very short walk.  Pros: -Very affordable  -Pet friendly  -Trail system -Concrete, leveled pads -Grass  Cons:  -Occasional train &  plane noise -No on-site dog park  -No dog bag stations  Be sure to use gate 34 when entering with  a big rig! Contact info:   405-734-2847 Tinkerliving.com /famcamp Overall we give this cozy and clean Famcamp a 👍!

Kirtland Famcamp   Albuquerque   New Mexico   ***************** We arrived at this green and smaller RV park/Famcamp on Labor Day.  The registration office was not staffed, but check-in instructions were sufficient.  The park operates on a first come first serve basis.  Registration building, bathrooms & laundry:  Picture below:  The very impressive and fully covered playground is right in the park, adjacent to the dog run area. It is pet friendly with a great, well maintained, mostly shaded dog park within the RV park, that even has an agility course!  Wow. Very impressive. SEE PICTURE BELOW: We give this park,  that is in close proximity to most amenities, 👍👍!
