Day 23 - November 2, 2019

This has been by most standards a very quiet and uneventful day, but in the nearly 10 years that we have been blessed to be able to travel with Wilbur we have learned to appreciate the places and people that we have encountered.  Tombstone is no exception, or to be more specific, the Tombstone RV Park.

 Traveling like this certainly gets us out of our comfort zone and gives us opportunity to meet fellow travelers from diverse locations and walks of life.  It also reminds us of how thankful we are for the anchor we have in the faith, home, family and friends that we have at this point in our lives.

 God is good!

All the time!

Day 9 - October 19, 2019

Well, morning did arrive, and we decided to continue North and East towards Monument Valley and Four Corners.  We did a quick pass through Monument Valley 2 years ago, but didn't take the time to explore beyond the views from the highway.  Wilbur isn't really allowed to explore the Valley Road inside the Navajo Tribal Park, so we opted for a 28 mile scenic tour that included the back country arches. Our driver/guide was Bernard, and having been born and raised in the Valley, he was a wealth of information.  The route through the Valley Road offered the sweeping views, including the Totem Pole formations. But the Back Country route included the more unique formations like the Sleeping Dragon and the Ear of the Wind arch. If you lay on your back and look up at this arch you can see the image of the eagle! And this would make great yard art back in Redmond. The walls below the Suns Eye arch contain cave drawings. ...

Day 25 - November 4, 2019

We were back on the road this morning.  We headed west towards Ajo, through the edge of Tucson and across the Togono O’odham reservation and we ended up in Why.  Don’t ask why because I don’t know why.  Bob says, why not.  The town of Why is on the edge of the reservation, and at the North end of the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. We finally found the heat!  It was 88 by the time we set up for the night, and we actually had to turn the air conditioning on.  It’s interesting to constantly have the border patrol present.  We've been stopped at check points, seen helicopters and drones flying, passed numerous patrol cars and trucks, and tonight we're camping a quarter mile from a border station facility.  It’s something we don’t live with in Oregon. Tomorrow we'll visit the National Monument, but this evening the view is from the Coyote Howls Campground in Why, AZ.
