83, sunny and absolutely gorgeous.
When we packed up to leave this am John noticed that one of the tires was low. So off to the Purcell tire to get it fixed. It was the inside tire of the duals so they had to take both off. It was a loose valve stem, so they replaced it and off we went. We passed at the border patrol station, didn't have to stop, they were only checking vehicles coming from the other way.
Every time we go through Why, AZ I take these photos. Missed the one of the Why not travel store. We are now in Organ Pipe Cactus Natl Monument. It is lovely.
We scored one of the sites with a shade shelter, plus a huge organ pipe cactus to shade our site. But not the solar panels. No hook ups here, so will be using the solar. The campground has very few people in it. This is the first time this year that we are in an actual camp spot with picnic table and yard. It is very quiet and dark too. I finished this beauty on the drive. It is 5 1/2 x 2 inches and is made from natural and dyed pine needles, polyester thread and glass beads. The center is a piece of dichroic glass I fused. It has dragon flies on it and depending on the light it is either silver, purple or green.
Cactus covered hillside just north of the campground. We had dinner outside at our picnic table tonight at sunset.
The Twin Peaks that the campground is named after with last light. No clouds, just an orange glow at sunset.
84, sunny and a light breeze. It was a delightful day in the lawn chair. Backlit cactus on our afternoon stroll. John strolling on the campground perimeter trail.
Ajo Peak in the late afternoon light. Backlit cholla.
Sunset from the campground.
Cool wind clouds this afternoon.
