55 Miles from Phoenix

I rode all of the 56 miles today! We start so early in the morning to avoid the heat. Gals were taking pictures of the moon this AM. Actually it is too hot to be out on the road after 1:00, so you had better be done. Slow climb until we got to Wickenburg. This town is the capital of Dude Ranches. We had some ice cream before the hotel — nice place with internet access.

Enclosed is a picture of a site I didn’t get to see near Blythe. It is on an Indian reservation and not exactly a tourist spot. I’ll have to go back sometime and see it. I’m sure there is some National Geographic show or something about space invaders that would have better viewing than on foot.
