Before we could go camping we had to weed the garden. At 8 a.m. it was already getting warm so we packed up the car and stopped at the garden on our way to Dead Horse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood. We planted the garden four weeks ago - the first picture is looking out over many little gardens and the huge crop of corn planted by the owner of the farm.
Next is the zucchini which is about 1 1/2" long already! Then the tomatoes are coming along nicely!
We finished weeding - harvested about four pounds of weeds - and headed to the campsite. The first pictures are of the Verde River in the park. The water was deep and running fast.
It's refreshing to see these large trees. We didn't have any near our campsite though.
Love the hillsides with the little caves. Can imagine the Indians in the 1400's living in the cliff dwellings here.
Our new tent. It's a Coleman Instant tent. It measures 14'x10' and is supposed to be set up in 1 minute. It took us a little longer to figure it out but it still went up very quickly - faster than our little tent did! Taking it down was also supposed to be done in 1 minute and again it took us a little longer. Now that we know how to do it I think we will be able to do it in a minute!
On our way home we stopped at a roadside rest area that we've stopped at several times before. Love the views!
Duchess loves to socialize every where she goes. This little dog wanted to play but Duchess was not willing!
She stiffed this Great Pyrenees but that was it - they both went their own way. Go figure.
