Ajo, AZ

We had rain, and then freezing temps so when I pulled in my slide to leave the campground, I had ice fall to the ground and shatter.  I'm glad it didn't tear my slide covers; I should have realized ...

After my chiropractor appointment, I left Tucson and headed to Ajo to meet up with friends and do some boondocking.  Since I couldn't fill my water tank at the contaminated campground in Tucson, I stopped in Why, AZ for water.  It is a wide spot in the road at the AZ 86 and AZ 85.

 While boondocking in Ajo, I drove down to the Organ Pipe National Monument for the day.  I stopped in Why for gas and lunch at the only restaurant (it was recommended to me), but as luck would have it, the only day it's closed is on Saturday and .... you guessed it ....I went on Saturday.

Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument celebrates the life and landscape of the Sonoran Desert. In this desert wilderness, you may drive a lonely road, hike a backcountry trail, camp beneath a clear desert sky, marvel at the magnificent cactus, or soak in the warmth and beauty of the Southwest.

I'm headed back to Phoenix for some doctor appointments and then off the Lake Havasu.
