Maricopa Visit April 2012

Palm Lined streets in Maricopa are a pleasure to walk or bike

    Classic cactus

Biking on wide sidewalks was a real pleasure

This cactus down the street had fully open flowers one day, the next day they were folded up
   

More biking in Cobblestone Farms

Here's Jan making more tracks
   

Sitting by the pool  we noticed four nice textures

Side-trip to Payson revealed a great antique store

This buggy could tell a story, price was $5K

 
We nearly bought this wagon wheel for the backyard but it would not fit in the car

 

 

 


great stuffed bear face

This place had a great stuffed animal sale, skulls and horns too

 


All of this stuff was for sale, great stuffed cat
 
   

Here's the picnic outside of Payson, about a 2.5 hour trip from Mcopa
   


Enjoying the pool was a priority every day

Hibiscus bush next to patio gave us a new bloom every day
