Day 26064! 05 Mar 26!

Thursday, March 12, 2026

The next morning we ran back out to Whitewater Draw.  There were not nearly as many Sandhill Cranes. Lots of other birds  Not many Cranes… Killdeer! Even a Mallard or three! So we cut our losses and headed out to a fine little restaurant called “Sandy’s”.  It is attached to a little RV park in […]

Day 26053! 22 Feb 26! My longest post of the year so far!

Sunday, February 22, 2026

I watched a Youtube video from a guy who travels all over Arizona using his drone.  It was on the Center of Arizona (Finding the Center of Arizona).  Turns out it is in a park in Camp Verde just down the road! As you can see by the monument, it is actually 23.3 miles to […]

Day 26015!

Friday, January 16, 2026

A regular stop for people living in an RV.  Particularly when it is cold at night and the furnace runs a lot. The only thing “flowering”. And I think they are dried from last year.  Everything should be starting before we head north in April. And a nice sunset over the pool.  We had a […]

Day 131

Thursday, May 11, 2023

I decide to play with my old Sigma 600mm Mirror Telephoto, with an Olympus OM film mount.  It is a bit soft, and the backgrounds tend to be a bit weird.  Rivers Edge Trail at the Rainbow Dam Overlook. Pods! The old combine. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 067!

Thursday, March 9, 2023

We stopped at Picacho State Park on the way back north.  They were having a super bloom or something or other. https://azstateparks.com/picacho/ This is a rugged little mountain range stuck off by itself. There was a bit of a line.  It was worse when we were leaving. The Dailylife Wife waaaaayyy down there! (Click on […]

They have…cactus… …lots of cactus… Weathered cactus! More and more… And down the road too! Even after you get onto pavement and leave the […]
