ROOSEVELT LAKE


18 March 2020:  We left Ajo, AZ on the 15th of March and drove up to Gila Bend.  Spent the night there and then drove up to the Roosevelt Lake area and are camped east of the lake where we camped last year off road 60.  It was a little soft when we came in as they also have been having some rain.  On our way through Globe we stopped at Fry’s and did a little grocery shop to stock up.  They had everything we wanted except toilet paper!  Or any paper products of any sort!  What craziness this is!  Can’t believe people are hording their toilet paper.  Walmart was also checked and they did not have any either.  So, we just headed to our campsite and camped.  Spent a day up at Parker Canyon looking at a few things.  Also took a drive out to road 97 and explored that area some.  We found a really neat little canyon that has some cool rocks in it.  Named it Pretty Rocks Canyon.

Lots of Owls Clover this year.

Don't know who spent some time putting this dream catcher on this century plant but it took some time.


Lichens on the rocks where no sun hits them.

Lots of poppies this year on the hillsides.


Connie loves her jeep.
