Picacho Peak, Arizona

March 17, 2018 by Michael

Picacho Peak, Arizona is a state park we stayed at on our way to Prescott from Tucson, Arizona. It is known for an insane numbers of Mexican Poppies and Desert Lupine. But, we were a couple weeks too early for the blooms. Our site was stunning, private, and spacious. A gem in the desert.

The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is our favorite place to visit when in Tucson. Even though we were staying near Tombstone, we needed to go to Tucson about once a week for errands. Making a stop at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum became a routine. They also have a very good restaurant. Broad-billed Hummingbird

Dragoon, Granite Boulders Southern Arizona

February 10, 2018 by Michael

We needed some wide open spaces after spending a month at the crowded Western Way Resort in west Tucson. Dragoon is southeast of Tucson and in Cochise County.

We visited Coronado, Zarpara, and Keeling Schaefer. They were all amazing. It was hard to believe Arizona is producing such great wines
