Thanks Monte.A great start to the read,especially on this rainy/blustery day.

Sure a lot of rock art.

Thanks Frank

 

 

Great story about your 9X great grandfather.

He and the uncle made quite a pair.
With their run ins with the "law".

Thanks for the report.Beautiful country.

Frank

 

It is good to have a few rascals in the family!

 

Wow part 3 ,it's getting better as you post.

Cool bee hives.

Thanks Frank

We were concerned about being far enough south to encounter Africanized bees. These were docile.

Wow!  Wonderful trip and report!  Thank you for sharing it with us!

 

Mr. Sage, you are most welcome!

 

Another fine TR. Good to see Julie's knees working so well. I am day 32 PO, good range of motion 2 degree to 130 degrees. Doing the hard work the first few weeks paid off. Now to get the strength back. 

 

Thanks Bill, and we are thrilled you are on the mend! :)

 

Thanks for the trip report. I like the spontaneous diversions to dots on a map approach. We do much the same. Have way more dots to look at than we ever will have time for. But that is half the fun! The Gila Bend petroglyphs were really a high point on one of our trips a while ago.

 

Yup, that sure is a fun way to explore and we have more than enough special spots to find! Thanks for the nice comment. :)

Nice report, thanks! I can’t wait for part 3. I’m thinking ther has to be a better word than “distractions”

Could be. Do you have a suggestion? :) Thanks so much for the kind comment!

Fantastic TR. I really enjoyed Part 4, we spend so much time traveling “The 395” and I-40 threatening to stop at various sites…it’s time for us to stop talking and start doing. Thank you again. 👍
