| no partners | | Drove out to Three Points, then south on AZ 286 onto the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. I hadn't been out there in many years, so thought it would be nice to see again. I was just driving through on my way to Arivaca, so didn't go to the visitor center, etc. Most of the photos were taken near the turnoff for the road to Arivaca. Nice and green of course. Thunderstorms were already growling in the area. 
Stopped at La Gitana in Arivaca for an obligatory glass of PBR and conversation with locals. When I left the bar, a thunderstorm was just about to cut loose, so I didn't stick around, knowing how quickly road crossings can become impassible with flood waters along that stretch back to Amado and I-19. In fact, by the time I left Arivaca, I was driving in a heavy downpour heading up the hill out of town. Fortunately, by the time I reached Las Guijas-Cerro Colorado Road, I was in the clear and out of the rain. The rest of the drive was uneventful. Of course, I had to go back to my swamp box "cooled" home in Tucson, so it was nice to have been out in my air conditioned vehicle for awhile anyway.   |
