Since it was a bright sunny warm day we went down to the Parker Canyon Lake State Park in the Coronado National Forest for a 5.2 mile hike around the lake. It was a great day to be there, not too warm, very sunny, cool breeze. Skye thought it was heaven, she finally had a day off leash and a lake to swim in all day long since the trail goes all around the lake shore. Her coat is a mess tonight, but here at least it dries quickly.
The lake is about 30 miles south of Sonoita and so close to Mexico that my phone got a “Welcome to Verizon Mexico” message. It’s probably 6 miles to the border. This was our third time hiking this lake, it’s a pleasant hike and it’s great for a water dog. Callahan loved it too.
Not much else happened today. All the adjacent campsites were empty when we got home. While sitting in the sun we saw two bicyclists loaded for the road come around and may have picked a spot just down the road about a half hour before sunset. And a small white van came in across the road from us. Lots of small white vans out here.
Beautiful lake!
ReplyDeleteHeat wave here. +26 degrees this morning. (7 FEB). Pat and I got to move another 4" of snow with another foot coming in tomorrow evening. Makes one wonder if I'll be able to move the camper by 29 MAR.
