From what you said about the road, I guess I'll pass it up.Travels with Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00411769980205792011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-67403262944672194242015-03-06T10:21:37.879-06:002015-03-06T10:21:37.879-06:00Saw numerous passenger car tires along the road. ...Saw numerous passenger car tires along the road. I am sure it is really murder on the trailers and passenger cars that venture into the park. When I went in, I was sure I was going to find out I had taken the back way in and there would be a nice paved road at the other side. But there isn't. I had a choice of going 27 miles to hook up with Ogilby Road, but that wasn't an option for me.Doug Laninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579793294984734214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-40438824323424483812015-03-06T10:17:19.816-06:002015-03-06T10:17:19.816-06:00The drive is very hard on my bones and I'm sur...The drive is very hard on my bones and I'm sure the poor jeep shocks took a beating.

It is amazing how desolate and dry the countryside is and then there is this river running through it giving way to green trees along its banks.Doug Laninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12579793294984734214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-21801941384202314782015-03-06T10:12:27.164-06:002015-03-06T10:12:27.164-06:00Thank you Dolly.

They just shake vehicles & peoples bones to pieces.

As usual, the pictures of you and Yuma are my favorite! You look really good Doug. The rugged lifestyle really suits you!

The Colorado River is beautiful. It's easy to understand why Yuma would want to swim in it. I thought it was beautiful seeing it from Parker. It didn't look like the cemetery was overpopulated. That's a good sign. hehe I'm not sure if that jail could hold any prisons. It was an interesting area.Dolly Laninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06800958084104672640noreply@blogger.com
