Traveling across Arizona.....

Headed out of Lost Dutchman SP this morning with our first stop at Bryce Thompson Arboretum.  Walked the gardens of desert plants from all over the world.  The many varieties of Cacti were the stars, but then there were the birds, and the butterflies, all enjoying the flowers.

Next stop, Besh-Ba-Gowah in Globe.  This archaeolological park has the ancient ruins of a 700 year old pueblo.  We walked the grounds of this pueblo, which housed over 350 people in it's one, two, and three story structure.  Many artifact including pottery, clothing, and ceremonial objects were on display in the adjacent museum. And to think, this site is now located in the center of Globe, Arizona.





Last stop.....we pulled into Roper Lake State Park. A nice one day stop to replenish our water, and
charge our batteries.
