Duane's Turn


Duane went with Gene today to see what there was to see in the desert.  14 side by sides (which we call buggies) met in the Saddle Mountain RV Park parking lot.  From there they split into two groups and explored on their own.  They met for lunch, then split again for the rest of the ride.

Duane and Gene's group found 

several interesting mountain crests





and lots of evidence of the recent unseasonable rains:
two windmills with their attendant tanks full of water

(side of one tank

the tank to this one is on the left,

green everywhere including

large areas of long grass, 


and healthy cactus.






The rain also made the desert bloom



(There were more flowers than this, but Duane was unable to capture them with the buggies in motion.)  Although the sky was overcast and the air chilly, Gene and Duane enjoyed their ride, but were glad to return home to wash off the dust in a nice warm shower.

Two more weeks before moving day.

Louise and Duane
