Eloy, Arizona


Day 53, Monday, March 11, Picacho Peak State Park, Eloy, AZ

My daughter Kristin has serious health problems, so we cancelled our reservations at Mesa and Verde Valley, and began heading north.  We stayed at Picacho so we could visit Jean and Everett at Robson Ranch Monday night, but the flowers at Picacho also made it worth the visit!  I rode down the road from the campground, then north on a highway frontage road, saw a plant called Desert Cotton blooming.  Plus lots of lupine and poppies.  Jim rode his bike from the campground to the trailhead, then met me as I was coming back up.
