| no partners | | The purpose of this road trip was twofold. First was to give the RAV4 a solid shakedown drive to see if recent repairs were good and monitor the performance of the vehicle. It checked out fine. The second reason was to check on the poppies over in the Rodeo, New Mexico area. I had been seeing some recent photos posted on the Cochise County and Its Wonders Facebook page, and wanted to see them in person. There were some nice areas, but not as extensive as I had seen previously closer to Safford. Interestingly, the area around Rodeo is the headwaters of the San Simon River which flows north and eventually reaches the Gila River near Safford. This whole distance is referred to as the San Simon Valley on various maps. My trip route was: Tucson> Sonoita> Sierra Vista (food to go from McDonalds)> Douglas (topped off the gas tank)> Rodeo> Road Forks> I-10 back to Tucson. Nice day for the drive and the countryside looked great.  |
