We had our first SE Arizona ATV ride yesterday with friends Pat and Janet McNamara. It was their first ride and I think they really had a fun time. We met Jim Pearce, Pat and Charlie, and 'new folks' Jim and Marci from Oregon at Sunnys D restaurant in Huachuca City.It seemed to take forever to get to Parker Canyon Lake where we unloaded the ATVs. Then it was over the small mountains to head for the border. Beautiful scenery with grassy prairie, foothills and mountains all around us. The border fence looked really ridiculous, with a frequently broken barbed wire 'box' fencing and railroad ties welded together to make a seemingly endless rail style fence.
We also saw a group of 20+ wild turkeys on the way to the ghost settlement of Sunnyside, where a silver mine played out and the last inhabitants left less than 10 years ago. It was a fun and varied ride with very little dust. Got back to Sierra Vista after dark and had supper at La Casita with Pat and Janet.
looks like lots fun atving about the desert, glad you are enjoying it.
