Sunny Acres RV Park, Las Cruces, New Mexico
We stayed at the Sunny Acres RV Park in Las Cruces, New Mexico one night as the base for exploring the White Sands National Monument. The RV Park by itself was quite quiet, however there are train tracks nearby. There were trains going through the night and they make really loud noises that did wake us up several times.
Location
The road through the park is really wide which made it quite easy to maneuver. The sites are separated by green patches of grass, some of them have trees and picnic tables. All sites have full hookups (30amp / water / sewer). The bathrooms and showers were very clean. There is RV storage right next to the RV Park.
We stayed at the site LL which looks tiny, but it did fit our 24 foot trailer and truck.

Wifi in the evening of Mon, Feb 20, 2017 was horrible. We couldn’t even connect to do a speed test. In the morning the wifi connection was much better. The table below shows Internet speeds measured at 8am on Tuesday February 21, 2017.

White Sands National Monument - World's Largest Gypsum Dunes
Spanning 275 square miles in southern New Mexico, the brilliant white dunes at White Sands National Monument are a sight to behold.

Justin's Diamond J RV Park in Tucson, Arizona
We stayed at Justin's Diamond J RV park for one night on Feb 19, 2017 to explore the nearby Saguaro National Park. This park seems to be catered towards longer term stay as it has lots of activities, for example mini-golf, bocce ball and walking trails that start right off the RV park. The sites were reasonably large, though there wasn't much vegetation to separate the sites. We were at site 39 and our 24 foot trailer and truck fit fine. When we stayed here in February the park was packed, but it was still quiet at night. [...]
Exploring the North York Moors National Park
When I lived in England, I spent over 8 years in and around the North Yorkshire area. It's a beautiful part of England, with several National Parks within easy reach. One of these is the North York Moors National Park, and I was excited for the opportunity to take Diana there when we were back in the UK recently. [...]
