Our stay at the Picacho/Tuscon NW KOA is complicated by the construction project that not only is widening a four mile stretch of I-10 but was responsible for the disappearance of the town of Picacho, Arizona in July 2012. We learned about the demolition of the town when we asked our campground host for a restaurant recommendation. Once upon a time we could have traveled less than half a mile to Picacho, now because of closed ramps it’s a circuitous route to the interstate exit and a Denny’s Restaurant near Eloy. But it’s a pretty drive just before sunset past cotton fields ready for harvest!
Our walking tour through the historic heart of Stavanger gave us insight into the canning and maritime industries that fueled this community as well as some tasty tidbits.
Our short visit to Njardarheimr gave us insight into life in 11th Century Norway and educated us on the role of “Vikings” within the Norse community of the time.
