Wow, so peaceful here, no road noise, no trains, no close neighbours, just quiet. Now this is a real gem of a primitive campground. 208 acres and over 600 huge campsites, almost like our Ontario provincial parks but in the desert , boon docking , but our parks charge $40.00 plus a night! $40.00 a week is awesome. I am sure we will return here again.
A very nice quiet walkabout as the sun was rising then down the road to Why. checked out the gas station and store. Very nicely set up here in the middle of nowhere.

Then we just took a cruise into Ajo to check out the town again. It is a very nice small town very scenic. Farmer's market on Saturday we will check out.
Then a must stop at Olsen's the IGA grocery store. Nothing we need right now but will be back, they have most of everything we will need here.

We checked out Darby Wells boon docking area
but not our cup of tea, too remote for our liking |
 |
| lots of space here |
Back home for lunch some quality reading done in the sun and shade. Too hot in the sun and too cold in the shade, so we made use of both. Only 68f today. Gonna be much warmer for the next week.

Blue skies and sunshine all day

A few hours of reading and walkabouts time to whip up supper, grilled a couple sweet Italian sausage to go with our salad..
 |
| sure did the trick tonight |
After supper Suzie spotted some burros/donkeys right behind our coach, knew they were in the area (telltale traces ya know) nice to see them here checking us out.
