There is a beautiful, brand-new trail system at the Texas Canyon Nature Preserve, located at the Amerind Museum in Dragoon. The landscape there makes for gorgeous hiking and the Amerind Museum itself is quite fascinating. The Dragoon Mountains are also beautiful, and of course Chiricahua NM is right there, so you have lots of fun adventures nearby! Congrats on your new home away from home!
My wife and I were SKP members a few years ago and used many of their parks. Never did lease a site but enjoyed our stays at most of them. We thought Benson's was one of the nicer ones. Your spot looks VERY familiar, I think we may have rented that one once. Our fav restaurant was Mi Casa along the main drag through town just south of Walmart. Great Ice Cream shop too. Best of luck and congrats!
281. Would like to visit offline. My name is kevin. And then my number is 658427. That's one word. Do you remember that old soda called YooHoo?? Sheesh. Ain't talking in code fun??
No clue why TH-cam offered me this video, but I'm such a fan of the movie "Dark Star" and it's song "Benson, Arizona" that I had to watch. Looks like you both are enjoying life to the fullest. It is hard to beat Arizona so I wish you both the best of luck with your lifetime lease there!
Your new "spot" looks wonderful and so many fun things to do. It's nice you have a trail right there for hiking. I was putting off going for my 2 mile walk today but you always inspire me to get out and do it. So, I'm off to the park. Take care, be safe.
Hi ladies! What a nice park with all the amenities for you to use. The casita is a nice idea for storage and a place to hang out. Those benyays (horribly misspelled) looked real good. Here in Wisconsin, we have Paczki's (pronounced Patch-kees) on Fat Tuesday. They're similar to a filled donut, but not donut shaped. Rather they are puffy and about 4 inches long. The doughy part is really good and the kinds of fillings you can get are endless.
I love the creative ways that people find to live in community. I think a situation like that would be beneficial for me as an introverted single person. Privacy when I want it, but never alone! Plus, the relative warmth in AZ. Congratulations on your spot!
That place is awesome. I love the location and it has a hiking trail. What more could you ask for? I absolutely love your spot that you got ❤. We are considering doing full-time Rving now that we are both retired. We want to travel and go places. I'm so glad that you provide the information that you are. It's great to see you both again. Much love from Oregon ❤
Congratulations on securing a spot! I'm gearing up to begin the AZT in a couple of weeks and you're Arizona adventures have me so excited to visit the area for the first time
🎉Congratulations 🎉 looks like a great place; I have so many questions, I’ll do some research. BTW, I noticed that Nettie got a lot more Mardi Gras beads than Kristy (11:39) what’s up with that😂
That park is incredible! It has pretty much everything you need right there. I could have some fun in the wood working shop. I used to love playing with my father's drill press 😂 My dog perked right up when the train whistle blew, she was very interested in that sound 🤭
Fancy as a retired carpenter if I ever downsize that would be a great place for me. Not too much into the social stuff. Looks like you all will fit right in. I’m hitting the PCT for a section or two maybe I will run into you all.
Hi love your spot, hope you both enjoy this place. I had followed many of your adventures, but had a nasty fall Christmas morning which put me down, when my grandson set up my note book I lost a few friends. Was so happy when I was scrolling to find you again. Did re subscribe 😊
Great video. We’ve enjoyed staying in several SKP parks this winter and are in Saguaro this week. After our official tour today we also joined the Hot List. What number were you when you got the spot?
Love your energy you two. Congrats on the Lifetime spot. Just curious about the cost of your lease and the ability to expand on your casita to include shower, kitchen etc. If you do not mind sharing. Mahalo
Each lot is a different price due to what's on it. You can improve the lot but have to get approval first. A bare lot is 18,000. When you give up your spot you get all of your money back plus what you spend on improvements. It's a non profit so no money is made.
I think you hit the jackpot!! I’m so pleased for you. Have been looking at lane but no considering something like this. Why not? Do you make money when your spot is rented out?
Hi, Great video. We are interested in getting a leased lot. But, the waiting list is very long. If I may ask how long did you have to wait to get a spot ?Thanks
The yearly maintenance costs right now is about $2300. If something happens in the park that is a huge expense the cost for that year can go up. Everyone in the park splits the cost.
Seems like you two have landed in a gold mine. Congratulations on a home base so to speak. ???? I wonder about Lynn. Hope she is okay. I don't hear you mention her.

I think they should pay you for the advertisement 😂.That was a beautiful presentation of the park.❤❤❤

Way to get yourself out there.
It’s really nice! Your lot seems very spacious and what a bonus having the casita! I’m hoping to visit next winter.
Lanita and Lisa were acquaints of our when we lived in Tucson, 13 years ago!
I hope they are doing well!

That looks like quite the co-op and the weight room looked good, also the hiking trail with the mountain views.

Isn’t it wonderful, growing older in this grand nation! My friends and I laugh so much!
That place looks fantastic
Such a cool idea/ place to have as a home base! So many nice amenities, Congrats!.😊

Good luck on the AZT.
🎉Congratulations 🎉 looks like a great place; I have so many questions, I’ll do some research.
BTW, I noticed that Nettie got a lot more Mardi Gras beads than Kristy (11:39) what’s up with that😂
Pesky took all the beads. 😀

My dog perked right up when the train whistle blew, she was very interested in that sound 🤭
Looks like a nice way to live. Congratulations! Happy Mardi Gras and Happy Valentines Day.😊❤
We just saw your video! What a cool place! Wishing you both many years of enjoyment there!
Congrats! Looks like a great winter base. Enjoy!
I hope that you visit the caverns soon.
What an exciting new chapter in your lives. Looks like a great place.

So happy for you getting that nice spot. I think you will enjoy having a landing place.
Congratulations on the lease🎉 it looks great!
That place is absolutely amazing!! Congrats!!
Thanks for the tour. I have been thinking about getting on the list! 😊
Congratulations! So glad you got a spot.
Love the casitas.
Nice place! Lot of things to do .Enjoy and have fun
Always a fun time with y'all.
Hi love your spot, hope you both enjoy this place.
I had followed many of your adventures, but had a nasty fall Christmas morning which put me down, when my grandson set up my note book I lost a few friends. Was so happy when I was scrolling to find you again. Did re subscribe 😊
So sorry to hear about your fall.
Nice to see you have a comfortable spot to park yourself, between your big adventures.
Welcome Neighbors!! Can't wait to meet you guys.
What site are you in.
281. We're not there right now.
Thanks for sharing your new home! Enjoy!
Congratulations on your RV site. Enjoyed the park tour and especially walking along with you on the hikes.
Just down the road from you is a unique shop/museum - Sunshine Gallery & Gifts. Very knowledgeable owner of all things local.
Love all the hiking y’all do and the place looks pretty amazing ❤
What a great set up!!
Very nice!
Fabulous!
Benson has some of the best year round weather
Wow! That’s looks amazing!
Love from Benson, Vt!
We were chatting about y’all over lunch and wondered how Lynn was doing. We miss here!
Wow, that weight room!
Love the DB hat!
Congratulations!
I’m on the list, too. Maybe we will be neighbors someday.
Hapoy for you!! Enjoy! 👍😎🇨🇦👌🌵
Love you two. FYI… You’re mispronouncing Hohokam. The accent is on the first syllable, not the second. I’m a native Arizonan.
Congratulations ladies. Enjoy, but remember don't take the "Wander" out of "Wander Women"!!
Great video. We’ve enjoyed staying in several SKP parks this winter and are in Saguaro this week. After our official tour today we also joined the Hot List.
What number were you when you got the spot?
Congratulations ladies!! Where do I sign up??? 😃

Congratulations on your new SKP spot! How long were you on their Hot List? Thx!
3 years.
Welcome to Saguaro from Allen & Bob in lot 718!
I think you hit the jackpot!! I’m so pleased for you. Have been looking at lane but no considering something like this. Why not? Do you make money when your spot is rented out?
The money from the rental goes toward your yearly fees.
Awesome! Can you tell me which video you did recently explaining the escapees leasin
These women explain it well.

This link is for a Bed Bath and Beyond Ad.
That’s an amazing place! But no pool?
No pool.
Sweet!
Great park and very nice video ❤👍
Glad you got the place you wished for
Home sweet home. Let's just trust that Juliette gets that lot and not Pesky or else you ladies won't ever get any peace and quiet. 😃
Gosh, I hope Pesky doesn't find out about this place.😀
Will you live in your 5th wheel there and travel with the Airstream? I'm on the list, too, probably a couple of years out.
Yes, that's our plan.
Boy Annette sure did have a lot of beads around her neck 🤣
Hi, Great video. We are interested in getting a leased lot. But, the waiting list is very long. If I may ask how long did you have to wait to get a spot ?Thanks
About 3 years.
SWEET!
How close is the co-op to medical facilities? Do first responders travel to the co-op for emergencies?
The hospital in Benson is 3.5 miles away.
Wow. Land holders.Youll have erect a climbing wall near your Casita
Will you park biggie there or both trailers?
Biggie.
Do you guys still have Biggie?
Yes, we will use her here at this park.
How long were you on the “list” before you were offered a lot?
About 3 years.
How long was your waiting time before getting this lot?
About 3 years.
How much is it annually?
I think right now it's about 2200. If you aren't there and put it in the rental pool, you could knock it down.
Can they raise your rent?
The yearly maintenance costs right now is about $2300. If something happens in the park that is a huge expense the cost for that year can go up. Everyone in the park splits the cost.
@@wanderwomenkristyannette5021 I'm guessing they have staff for upkeep of the community spaces?
@jmkats It's mostly run by the members. Everyone pitches in. There are a few paid positions.
Seems like you two have landed in a gold mine. Congratulations on a home base so to speak. ???? I wonder about Lynn. Hope she is okay. I don't hear you mention her.
Hello Kristy and Annette. It’s me Eckert. I am in Tucson…long story why…I might be your neighbor. Stopped by there this morning to take a look.
That would be great. We would love to have you as a neighbor.
