Dateland, about 65 miles East of Yuma.  On the way to Tucson for a visit to the VA medical center there.

Cute leather jackets!  A Shell station in Gila Bend

Picacho Peak, about 30 miles West of Tucson along I-10.

Arizona has lots of train activity.

In Mexico, you would pay about a third of what you would have to pay here.

Pretty things.

Call the exterminator!

Sun is going down

The visit to the VA went well, and I'm on the way back to Yuma.

Vickie bought this bicycle from Pat just a couple days ago.   She has it decorated for Mardi Gras!   Pat took all the pictures of the parade and dinner, since I was out of town today.

Don decorated his scooter!

We have lots of cute dogs in the park.  And LOTS of cats! :-)

Looks like Scott decorated his "Yammer Hammer"

Vickie and Mickey

Laurie.  They didn't do quite as much decoration as last year, but still looks good

Bob, the park owner hires these guys to help Mario and also do some work projects on their own some times.  They are fine young men.  This picture cracks me up! :-)

Anna with her real New Orleans Mardi Gras mask!

Of course, the day ends with a huge potluck in the Park Ramada.

Cool dune buggy I spotted on the way to Tucson.   There may be something like this in our future this coming Summer in Kingman.
