We arrived at Butterfield RV Resort in Benson AZ after a 50 mile drive and settled into our site.
Our first excursion was to Tombstone where we visited the original Boot Hill and watched a “reenactment” of the shoot-out at the OK Corral.
Our next excursion was to Willcox to view the migrating Sandhill cranes. We saw the cranes from afar, but also saw a variety of water fowl up close. The scenery as we drove was lovely.
A third excursion brought us to Holy Trinity Monastery in Saint David, just 10 miles from our campground.
But one of the highlights of our stay in Benson was the local bar, the Arena. It boasted friendly people, a fine fireplace, two resident dogs, karaoke, and an owner that bought us a round of drinks. What else could we ask for?
