Taking a walk and a ride beside our creek at the farm.

Matty and Zak were at our farm at Easter time and we had to get our four-wheeler out for a little run.

This winding road on Route 66 wasn't supposed to have nothing longer then 30 foot driving on it, but we managed! Luckily the oncoming traffic was light.

The saquaro cactus grows big in Arizona but they won't get their "arms" until they are about 70 years old!

Tombstone, Arizona and the interesting gravestones.

Bert and I were on top of this mountain and I had just told him about Stefke's dream of retiring amongst the many hummingbirds of Arizona. He thought this would be a great spot for her to build her retirement home.

Quartzsite

We are currently in Quartzsite, Arizona. If you "google" "Quartzsite" you will get an idea of this town. Think "trailer trash". ^_^
A few more days here and then on to Nevada for a short while and then we will head on home. We hope to see the Petrified Forest in Arizona on our way across the state.
A friend of ours from Stratford e-mailed us with news of a chemical spill into Stratford's water system. Schools closed etc. Maybe it is a good thing we weren't home for that!!
I keep checking this Huitema blogger site for news from anyone, but no luck....if you need help with posting just ask Carly or myself.
See you soon.......Marianne and Bert

California dreaming....

Hi everyone,
Bert and I are camped in California (just over the border from Arizona). The weather is just great and we have been touring all the sites around Yuma. Unfortunately I can't send pictures to either Carly or the blogsite because the public library here doesn't have a usb port available to the public so you will have to wait until we get home. We want to go up to Quartsite (still in Arizona) before we head back home.
Marianne and Bert
