Box Canyon

Friday was Ken's 66th birthday, and to celebrate, we went on another Jeep ride. This time we traveled with "The Rough Riders" through an area called Box Canyon. Of course, we had to drive through some pretty scenery and rocky roads before getting there, but it was all worth it. After we finished the ride through the canyon, I took Ken out to dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Florence about 19 miles south of where we park the coach. Their food is always a treat after a long, dusty, day of Jeeping. It was a fun and satisfying day for both of us!

Here are some of the pictures I took along the way. As always, you can go to "Our Web Album" on this page to see all of the pictures I have uploaded from other trips and outings.

This is near the beginning of the drive.

We are going down there!
There was lots of scenery and "Arizona Wildlife" to see along the way.





This is the group starting into the canyon.







The worst of the drive really was through the narrow canyon, but with Jeeps, no one had a problem. We all got through without any scrapes or hang ups which made it a successful trip! After everyone was through, Ken and I branched off and did a cache before heading for L&Bs (the mexican restaurant). Never can pass up a close cache (grin).

Like I said, it was a nice day and Ken survived his 66th year! Happy all this next year babe, I love you!!
