Just a place to lay my head.

When we were at Picacho last, I took a few photos of some of the rigs we saw camped there.  If you're familiar with camping, you know that part of the ritual is taking a walk around to check out all the other rigs along with the various camping paraphernalia people just can't leave home without.  We've picked up some really good ideas that we've incorporated and we've seen a lot of things that fall into the "What were they thinking?" category.

The photos below are some of my favorite set-ups.  Simplicity seems to be the theme.

We took the Airstream to Picacho Peak to meet some friends and enjoy the wildflowers.  Most people think Arizona is hot, dry and colored only in varying shades of muted greens and browns.  Most people would be wrong.  The yellows, golds, and blues of the spring wildflowers are so vibrant that they sometimes don't seem real.  And they don't last long,  so we have to enjoy them quickly because in the blink of an eye they're gone.  And we are left wondering if in fact they were real.
