Good Times & Friends!!

We hit the ground running in Payson. My friend Chuck has lots of hikes, walks and meals planned. Here are a few shots of some of our activities to date...

Payson Irises & Poppies

The PUPS, Evin and I have been in Payson, Arizona since Sunday. It is good to be back with our friends Chuck & Gerry and Jim & Patti. Spring is only a week away. Irises and poppies are starting to show their beautiful purple and orange colors on nearby PATHS...

I will end this post with two photos I took with my cell phone of the same flowers.

On the Road to Tucson

The PUPS, Evin and I left Patagonia and spent one night in Sierra Vista. We decided to head for Payson and stop in Tucson and visit some RVing friends there and see a little more of the Sonora Desert. We had only planned to stay a few hours. A few hours soon became three days.

Evin at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum before the phone battery died.

The Mount Wrightson Wildernson Range was our constant companion on the early part of our drive.

We leave the grasslands near Sonoita and Patagonia and head to the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson. It is ranked as one of the Top Ten museums in the United States. I have to confess that I forgot my camera. This entire post was done with my cell phone. There would be more photos but the battery died.

There is an art museum at the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum. This painting really caught my "eye"!!

As did the hedgehog cactus that had just started to bloom.

I'll end this post with a photo of one of our stops along the "Road to Tucson"!!

A Little More Patagonia

Just had to take another shot or two around Patagonia late this afternoon. The first photos were taken with the D7000 Nikon...

The following photos were taken with my Galaxy 4 cell phone camera...

We plan to leave Patagonia Lake State Park tomorrow. The PUPS, Evin and I have enjoyed our time here.
