Day 43 - Feb 20th - Ajo RV Park

Up this morning and Denice makes an Omelet - Great way to start the Day. Head off down the road with Organ Pipe National Monument as a destination. We know that every year at about this time a 2nd cousin of mine spends a few weeks at that RV Park, so we thought that just by chance they may be there now. Elwyn Eddy was originally from Burmis, Alberta, and his wife Marleen from the Crows Nest Pass, but of course have not lived there for eons. Elwyn worked and retired from Telus in Calgary many years ago. Since that time they have been living a good share of the time in their 5th wheel, travelling between Calgary, his home residence, Vancouver Island where they own a lot at Fanny Bay, Burmis where Elwyn still owns the lot where his parents used to run the local grocery store/ service station right below the now famous "Burmis Tree", and southern Arizona. However, when we checked at the gate the register lady said that they had left as their 14 day time limit was up, but they would be back on Sunday or Monday. She and her husband new them well and said that they thought they had gone to Picacho State Park south of Phoenix. So no luck there but we left my cell number and e-mail and hopefully they will call Sunday. If they do we may move down there for a few days to be with them before we travel on. WE ARE RETIRED AND HAVE NO SET TIME SCHEDULE OR DESTINATION. JUST DAY BY DAY!! Returned to Ajo and went to the local IGA and stocked up on groceries. AGAIN! Damn, if we just didn't have to eat we could surely travel cheaply! Put all the groceries away, and had a cooked chicked from IGA for supper. No more than finished, than we noticed it looked like a good sunset, so we hurried and headed out on the "Loop Road" to find the perfect spot. Only need to travel about 3 miles to find that one, and it was a pretty good sunset as this photo will confirm. Returned home to complete this Blog!!!!!!!! I'll fill in a bunch of photos tomorrow. It's 10:30PM - away past my bedtime ---------------------
