Just more great weather , what can I say? Walkabout for a bit into town early morning for a couple things. Puttering around for a bit and she called me outside to see not one but 7 ultralights flying over the area. So cool, talk about a bird's eye view, on another perfect day.

| 2 of the ultra lights, they were not close together |
When Suzie was ready we took off for a cruise around the area
. Today want to head over to Ocotillo Wells. Only about a 20 minute drive, an area we have never been to yet. More State Park recreation area mostly for atv's and dune buggies etc... This could be a very busy area at the right time of year. But also free camping if you can put up with all the noise and stuff.

| dune buggies and atvs coming in |
 |
| ATV rentals too |
 |
| Ocotillo Cactus everywhere here |
On our way back home we spotted this Rv way out there and am pretty sure it was the
Bayfield Bunch in a very secluded area. Nope, will not stop by for a visit cause we know they like their space as we do too.

| looks like them |
Almost home enjoying this quiet desert drive. So much open space here that we love.
Taking another road into town passed many more sculptures that are scattered around the area, Had to stop at this one just cause we could and take a pic, it is amazing and huge.
Home for lunch an while Suzie is relaxing I whipped down the road to see if I could get some fresh local oranges, nope only huge red grapefruit. Good deal $3.50 for a 7 lb bag , but wanted oranges, will check back later.
Now to enjoy this very warm sunny day in the shade. We both got some quality reading time in and had a wonderful very hot afternoon.

That was our winter day and hope yours was a great one as well, wherever you are.
Thanks for stopping by.
Where have we been this Winter
George, I think what you saw in the sky was no ultralights but parashooters. Ultralights are actually motorized little airplanes. Paragliders are yet another category.
ReplyDeleteCool, thanks for the correction, was nice to see them all cruising overhead.
DeleteAnother toasty sunny day! Life is good in the desert.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is wonderful here in the desert, love it!
DeleteYes, it was a nice day for a drive around the area. Beautiful blue skies!
ReplyDeleteIt sure was and the blue skies awesome.
DeleteYep that was us guys George. We were home but probably half sleeping. We still intend to get around to see you guys if your going to be there for a bit.
ReplyDeleteJust caught your rig of the corner of my eye, and was pretty sure it was you, we should be here for about another week, so drop on by when it suits you. I wish I could take a nap , but not so, Suzie does that for a few minutes right after lunch.
DeleteSounds like another wonderful day in the desert.
ReplyDeleteIt sure was like most of the desert days we enjoy in the winter.
