LOCATION: Apache Junction near Phoenix, Arizona
WEATHER: Beautiful. Highs in low 70s
We hiked a 3 mile+ trail in the park. The first half was steep uphill, a great cardio workout. The second half, going back down the mountain, was a killer for the knees.
Later, we met the clerk to do the paperwork for the vehicle storage. We are all set. It will be simpler keeping all of our stuff, rather than selling it/giving it away, had we sold the Airstream and pick- up. We called to cancel our car insurance for the next 7 months, the savings totally offsets the rental!
We stopped at Ace Hardware to buy things to protect the vehicles while in storage.....mousetraps, steel wool to stuff in the pipes to keep the critters out.
We stopped at a ghost town mining town near our park. First stop was at thrir saloon to try a prickly pear margarita. 
We watched the steam engine train go by.
The view from the saloon is our state park nestled under Superstition Mountain.
George struck up a conversation with this cowboy. He had a pistol on his belt, a huge cowboy hat, and spurs on his boots.
Then, the fiddler sang a song making up lyrics about Karmen and Jorge.
