Finally, I'm on the road again! I had a doctor appointment this morning so I got a bit of a late start. I made it to Superior, AZ and had two delicious chili rellenos. |
Very good and they held me for 7 hours. |
If you ever go through Superior, stop for some great Mexican food at Los Hermanos. |
Superior is an old mining town. I'm not sure if it is still active, but I think it is. |
Entering the Salt River Canyon just outside of Globe, AZ |
You can see the Salt River down there. |
Any river in AZ is exciting. |
Especially the ones with water in them. |
At one time this was a really cool ore sample display, but some real low life stole the bronze plaques that described each sample. |
I stopped at most of the view points as I wasn't in a big hurry today. |
I got a little misplaced (not lost) while trying to find Fort Apache. Instead I found the cool ranch entrance. |
See, I told you I wasn't lost. This is the dorm for the grade school at Fort Apache. Some of the kids are so remote on the Reservation that they only go home on weekends. |
I took the liberty to park under this tree in the shade while I went and paid my fee and viewed the museum. |
I'm a function before form guy, but this trunk bag looks like a diaper with a load in it. Kuryakin better come up with something soon. :) |
A look inside the Generals Cabin |
I believe all but one of the builds at Fort Apache have gone through restoration work. |
This is the only original building and it is being used as the post office. |
It used to be what the sign says |
This was the commissary |
The school is still being used for three grades. |
I think this was a milking barn |
The White River coming from the White Mountains |
There are a lot of these free range horses all over the reservation. |
This one crossed the main highway right in front of me. |
As I was leaving the town of Fort Apache...... |
.......there was a little fire incident. |
They must have got on top of it right away. They even had a Hot Shot Crew there. |
Is this where they are making the new Goldwing? |
There are two guarantees on road trips. Weather and you guessed it, road construction. At the front of the line, we had a nice visit! |
If I was driving the pilot truck, the wait would be much shorter. |
