Coronado National Memorial




It's been a few days since I've posted anything on my blog. So, I'm making up for lost time by posting a couple of photos from a place I visited today with a friend - the Coronado National Memorial. WOW...pretty dramatic country in these parts! I looked down across the vast landscape that encompassed both Arizona and Mexico...and, I could practically hear the hoof-beats of horses long past, and explorers discovering (and often dying for it) a new land.

Amazing!

    He'd tell you...but, then he'd have to kill you (Flying Mermaid). By the way, guess where I am right now...at the dreaded APPLE STORE in Tucson. Arrrrrgh! I won't tell them I know you...

    Yo Mermaid - the next time Apple gets my computer, they're gonna send me a shipping box for it. I didn't want to leave it with them today, since I would not get it back for over a week and it wasn't backed up yet.

    I don't think you know bisbohemian, but, he & his wife sometimes frequent Roka when they're in town (they do make their home here), perhaps when you're there. We'll make an introduction.

My Daughter Visits Bisbee!!!

Image
Good morning Bisbee! It looks like it's going to be yet another beautiful day here in Tiny Town (I didn't coin the term...I have our friend Juliette Beaumont, the bartender at Elmo's to thank).  I've got the wonderful "hurry up & wait" task of needing to wait for a visit from the cable company to deal with the inconsistent internet connection I have. But, the next few hours are mine alone. Nice. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to picking up my lovely daughter, Mira, at the airport in Tucson this evening and having her here in Bisbee for a week! I moved here last June on the same day she left for her travels in India, Cambodia and Thailand this past summer. She's a world traveler, and it will be very cool to show her my new home. I'm hoping to introduce her to as many of my new Bisbee friends as possible. We'll be seeing you around...

Emily Decks Out for the Sandman Show at Elmo's

Image
Yesterday afternoon a bunch of us went down to St. Elmo's in Brewery Gulch to hear our friend Sandman perform his unique blend of Cowboy Rap and Poetry (you've got to hear it to understand - check out his website ).  One of our own - Emily - was sporting quite the amazing outfit...which used to belong to Sammy Davis, Jr.! She says a friend of hers back in New Jersey passed it along to her after a photo shoot with said Sammy.  Now, I think that's just way cool!
