White Sands New Mexico in April 2011

 This is one awesome, beautiful place.  This white sand is so fine and soft, wonderful on bare feet.

Drive to Tortilla Flats, AZ

Several of us drive up and back on the very old Apache Trail, an old road built so the men and equipment could get to and from the Roosevelt Dam while it was being built.

The road is full of sharp, one lane hair pin and S turns and on dirt.  It was a great ride.
Part of the road viewed from much higher in the mountains.


Very delicate flower.

Look at the tiny car on the road below us.
Look waaay out there, more road!

Two Quail in Apache Junction, AZ

I spent two nights at the Moose Lodge in Apache Junction AZ before heading to Avendale to Cummins Coach Care for my RV safety check before I head toward Maine.  These two birds were sitting on the wall I was parked next to.  You cannot see through my windows from outside so the birds, a male and female, did not see me moving around and taking their pictures.
