WARM IN ARIZONA

Not only is it warm in Arizona, but there are a lot of flowers showing up out in the desert.  We had breakfast with Wayne and Audie (friends from the Bitterroot) and then drove out to KOFA Wildlife Refuge and visited some of our old campsites we used to haunt.  We always camped out there in the 90's and did a lot of checking the refuge out.  The roads are not as good as they used to be because of the off road vehicle use, but we made it pretty good with our jeep.  There are more poppies this year than we have ever seen out there.  And the desert is really green this year with all the moisture.

Our campsite at Quartzsite.

This is the view from one of our old campsites on Road 22 in KOFA NWR.

The desert is pretty green this year.

Connie does a good job of driving on these jeep roads.

Lots of color this year.

The leaves on the ocatillo this year are very big and green.

This was one of our favorite campsites years ago.
