Drove from Chiricahua National Monument. Hiked Fort Bowie. The trail and the history are intriguing. Apache Spring was smaller than I expected. The remains of the Fort are disappointing. Paying my respects at the grave of Congressional Medal of Honor recipient Private Orisabo Spence was special. 3.5 miles 200' AEG
Drove to Willcox to the Coronado Vineyards for a meal and to peruse their wines. I arrived at 1548, the cashier in the Wine Shop informed me that they had closed at 1600 by their clock. I was very disappointed that they had a bad clock.
