LOWELL, ARIZONA.USA

After a great Christmas burrito break, we are off towards Bisbee, Arizona. With Neal and Nicola scheduled to come in February, we will wait and explore this once mining and now art centre together. With limited camping options, we will just stay out of town in Lowell, Arizona. 


Missed the service, but thank god-ness for the temp!
As we roll out of Sierra Vista, still getting use to seeing snow on the mountains.
With the amazing weather we have been having, it is all pretty much a product of the local elevation.
Most plains that we ride average 4,000-4,500 feet above sea level.
The range in the distance is pushing 7,500 feet above sea level.




Having already been right to the border of Mexico and never being too far from it, we have been watching a variety of series and shows pertaining to illegal crossings.
Illegals crossing for both immigration or drug traffic sake.
Not the first time, here are common remnants used to deter capture.
Soft sole slippers to leave as nominal of a footprint as possible and camouflage wear to help blend into the desert 
 

Now from any number of countries, reportedly five hundred illegals cross into, JUST ARIZONA, a day.


Here’s another great find that I’m sure we would have never found unless on bike. The Greenway Manor. Once an estate to a mining magnate, today the treasures are music themed. We are hunka, hunka, hunkering down in The Kings Suite for the night. 

It was as fun as it looks.
