Some of our new friends



Classic breakfast of fried bread, fried hard-boiled egg and Nando sauce; delicious as ever. Two hour bike ride on the 21 mile loop of Ajo Mountain Road, Washboard gravel but cool and exhilarating. Stopped at the Why Not market in Why for ice cream bars and diet coke which we deserved 100% also. Back on the occasionally necessary I-8 to big old Tucson and right on state route 83 and 82 into Patagonia to check it out and visit with Penny and Rob recently of Langley. Area has transformed from Sorona desert to something closer to southern California landscape. P and R treated us to a night in their guest house high on a hill overlooking the village. We went back to the saloon in Patagonia where S and I had earlier stopped in for a margarita. Good visit with P and R mostly on Langley issues including discussion about the chicken, duck, pit-bull dude off Bayview Road and what might be done. Also a good story about a single Quechua Indian woman and child who spoke neither Spanish or English who somehow made it from the border to relatives in Alabama.
Good tubbing and sleep and we deserved....
