Tuesday November 8 2011 DAY FIVE

Tuesday morning, we woke up in Globe, Arizona to a bright sunny day, with no water, no ice, nothing but clean dry road and a beautiful ride 'on through' that treacherous mountain we had maneuvered the night before!   McDonald's must have seen adventurous RVers before, because they were extremely accommodating and obviously KNEW there was no place for us to have gone! 
We saw absolutely beautiful scenery, high mountains, sharp drop-offs and neat tunnels, too!

We took lots of photos, and it's hard to choose which to share, but here are a few that caught our attention!

Magee knows more about cacti than I do, so she was great in helping to identify some of these varieties!!

Leaving the hail, snow, and 7% mountain  grades behind was both exciting and sad.   It's nice to see our nation's beauty!  

Yesterday I had renamed Magee, and referred to her as "Tonto" because traveling with her has been such a tremendous pleasure!   Little did I know that she had an ENTIRE FOREST named after her!  See, I have an important 'traveling companion'!!      SEE HER FOREST ?  

We found Saddle Mountain RV Park in the middle of the freeway, in Tonopah, Arizona and decided that we would splurge and get some electricity and other not-so-special luxuries, especially since we were OUT OF WATER on board the rig!

Tomorrow we visit Quartzsite to look for friends and to SHOP!!
