this one is for the photographer...... shot in the Warm Springs Wilderness, east of Bull Head City, AZ.

The Roaming Red Rocker checks out Saguaro National Park, just west of Tucson AZ. A beautiful spot on the planet.....

Roaming Red Rocker arrives at the Valley of the Sun.

lay of the land outside Oatman AZ.

cool day in the desert. headed up route 66 to Oatman, a historic mining town. stopped to take this shot of the RRR among the "teddybear" cholla. now i know why they are also called "jumping cholla". Ouch!

as described on the web: "The full moon tonight is called a "Super Perigee Moon" since it is at its closest to Earth in 2011. The last full moon so big and close to Earth occurred in March of 1993".
 this is how i saw it from a perch at Lake Havasu City..

sat down with the roaming red rocker and had a closer look at the Monument Valley shoot. thought this one was a keeper.

Arizona landscape .... settled in at Lake Havasu...

even i would like to be here .......

covered many miles today, chasing the light ... ended up in a classic location. the RRR decided to blend in ....   keep the spot light on the landscape..

had a little "situation", crossing border into Texas from Oklahoma. everything got settled. (amazing how far a pil can get ya).

Look closely .. the roaming red rocker is grooving at Monument Rocks, Kansas... chalk pyramids baby!

Nebraska

Day 1, Bismark North Dakota. calling for winter storm tomorrow. might stay put, and take the roaming red rocker to Menards to see the family...

this is truly the last shot from my Mexican adventure / a ride back to the hinterland in a private jet. it was groovy ...... as were all the bus trips..
so it is.........

interesting way to end MY winter in Mexico. 1st class bus broke down half way between Barra and PV. transferred to a (WTF)? class bus. hot, rough, no bathroom. this is a shot of my traveling companions at the very back of the wagon..

so long Melaque

Adios Barra
