A Lazy Day!! Pancakes, Bacon and Eggs for breakfast. Lazing around outside when some people from Oregon came by and told us about a old mexican cemetary up a side road that we 
should go see, so we did. It was very well kept with all the crosses in good repair and painted white. Many gravesites were adorned with flowers and Icons. A lot had bottles of water beside them, that we do not understand, but being in the desert, it certainly must relate to a supply for the "Great Beyond". We then continued on up that road for another 6 or 8 miles ending at a locked gate at the entrance to military property and a Wildlife Protection Zone. We turned back, and returned home, but were happy with our little tour into the remote desert. Going by our Jeeps GPS we estimate that we were about 15 - 20 miles from the Mexican Border. Its great to see the desert in its own pristine environment with little human intervention. One think we do wish though, is that it would sure be nice if those that did tread would bring their garbage back with them. Especially glass containers, namely beer and
liquor bottles. If all would help by backing a garbage bag with you and take more out than you leave, in time it should become a much cleaner country!!! Its nice to be on my "High Horse" and pass my thoughts along, but I'm sure it will never happen. In the afternoon we went into Ajo just for a drive and bought some stuff - A new book for me to read, a map of the Ajo area, and a bracelet for a Granddaughter. As we driving around "Old Eagle Eye Denice" spied that the DQ was open today, So she did get her Peanut Buster Parfait after all. I had a Caramel Sunday. Not Bad!
