Rock Springs Pie Company



One of the ways we get free overnight stays is through a club called Harvest Hosts. They contract with vinyards, attractions, museums, golf courses and so on to provide free overnight camping for RVers in the hopes they will get some business during the stay. Last night we stayed at a quirky little place called the Rock Springs Pie Company. 


As you can tell by the name, this place is famous for it's pies. But the food here is real down home comfort food. I had the first liver and onions since retirement and it was fantastic.


They also have a twist on their ways to serve pie. Of course there are hot and cold, drizzled and ala mode. But they also take your choice of pie, ice cream and toppings, and blend it all into a pie shake. I had the peach crumble pie shake with vanilla ice cream. Yum!


But one of the interesting quirks were the stuffed animals around the place. At every corner, on the walls and down the halls you can find some type of large animal.



It is all housed in a very historic building which was originally an 1800s merchantile when this was but a wagon trail.


Cool place, great food and pies and something to see at every turn.

We have been off the grid boondocking for the past 16 days. Today we head to a campground with hook ups in Cottonwood AZ. Needless to say we are looking forward to very long, hot showers (before you ask, yes we have been taking showers while boondocking, just short ones to conserve water 😁).


For anyone interested, our solar worked flawlessly. We did not use our generator even once. We went a maximum of 9 days with our onboard water supply and holding tanks. And our propane still registers full. Very positive results!
