Casa Grande, Arizona

Casa Grande is just a short distance south of Phoenix, so our drive here was pleasantly short. One reason we stopped here is so that we could stay at RoVers Roost, an RV park associated with the Escapees Club. The Escapees is a club devoted to serving the particular needs of people who live full-time or for long periods of time in their RVs. We joined Escapees some time ago so that we could use their services, including mail forwarding service. Using this service gives us a Texas address that the state of Texas accepts as valid for things like driver's licenses, vehicle registration, voting, and taxes. RoVers Roost is a co-op park. The members of the co-op own shares in the park and each member has an RV site for their use. We want to investigate this and other Escapees parks to see if one of them might be a place we could see ourselves setting up a home base in, if we should decide to do that someday. We decided that this particular park wouldn't work for us on a long-term basis. We don't find it as attractive as other alternatives, and the sites are smaller than we would want for a long stay.
