Denning RV Travels: Returned to Cousin Bob's

Apr 20, 2012 and still here.

As you may remember our first stop, after Texas, was Cousin Bob's. After the second snow fall last fall we left promising to return in the spring to continue to help with construction on the house. We got to Bob's on Apr 20 at 3:30pm.

One of the little desert creatures came out to greet
us as we were setting up camp!!!

The neighbors....at least they are quiet and they
mosey off when they are done.

We plan to leave sometime the third week in May to go to the Grand Canyon-North Rim. I read that the North Rim does not open to tourists until the middle of May. Oh well, we will get there when we get there!!!

In the mean time, there have been some day trips....very LITTLE work has been done on the house. What is the old adage? All work and no play....in our case it is more play than work. OPPS!!!!

We have ventured over to Oatman, AZ. It is known for it's little burro's wondering the streets begging for food....and they are good at it too. Flat Stanley went along and again mugged it up for the camera.

Flat Stanley and Cousin Bob when we first got into town.

Always a Saloon in these old west towns.

Flat Stanley on a toy burro his size.

Flat Stanley got involved in the gun fight in the center of town.
Everyone is trying blow holes in this poor little puppet!!!

Now for the burro experience:
Burro food is sold in town. They would rather the burros be feed burro food than a candy bar or popcorn (bad for their teeth I guess) It was fun feeding the little guys.

They wander the streets looking
for a hand out.

They will get up close and personal

Very up close and personal!!!

And they are pushy!!!

Some of the buildings in town:

Fast Fanny's, the local Bordello!!!

Town Hall/Museum

Local entertainer...or crazy. Not sure.

There was a Harley Davidson store in this town, along with one in Apache Junction, Tortilla Flat, Sedona and Seligman. Could it be something about "Riding off into the sunset"? Probably the best mode of transportation on the mountain roads.

I know, if I show one more rock formation....but each one is unique.

So much for Oatman, now on to Seligman.....

I read on the Internet that one of the "must experience things" was to go to the Snow Cap in Seligman. They have a quarky way of serving food. So we had to try it out.
