Arizona - Tombstone Territories RV Park

We are encamped at a very nice RV park near Huachuca City, Arizona.  The altitude here is 4500 feet and we are having cooler weather as a result of Rocky, the snow storm that is dropping lots of snow on the panhandle of Texas and Kansas.  But if we wanted to have great weather all the time we would have to stay in one place and that just isn't us.  We like to explore different places and therefore we put up with whatever weather comes our way.

The campers next door have set out bird feeders and we are welcomed each morning by the various cheeps and chirps.
Lesser Green Throated Finch

Gila Woodpecker

White Crowned Sparrow

House Finch

Mourning Dove - lots of these

Black Throated Sparrow - this little guy looks mad!

Every once in awhile a hawk flies in and the birds scatter like crazy.  Apparently there is a javelina that makes its way into our area but we haven't seen him yet.
 
There was brownies and ice cream in the clubhouse last night followed by a fellow, Johnny Bencomo, who played 6 string, 12 string and 18 string guitars.  He played western music and had a great voice but it was the guitar playing that made the show.
At times he made that 18 string guitar sound like a harp.  And could this guy whistle.  He played and sang for two hours straight.  We were glad we took the opportunity and went over.
