Mo and I haven't been there for a few years and we are anxious to go back, another reason for no more long trips outside the Northwest in the summer! Beautiful, Laurie, and plus I discovered a new RV park for us to stay in.

Jance's Joanna Brady series which is set in Cochise Co. A good friend also has an aunt & cousin who live in Bisbee. She has spent time there, caring for the aunt, so Bisbee and Cochise Co. come up often in conversation.<br /><br />Love your pictures of all the wonderful places I will never see in person.
