Revisit Tubac, AZ

[asirimarco]

We went here last year but didn't get out and walk around. This year we decided to spend the afternoon there. Much to our surprise it was shuttered up tight. Very eerie walking around a town with no other people there.
Did see these guys but they wouldn't talk to us.


Just liked the look of these plants.

These are the street signs, made of tile

Arent these pretty and easy to take care of made of metal

Wish I could have bought this - but it's about 3 feet high.

And then there were these guys....

Well these will be my last pictures from the US until sometime next spring.
We cross into Mexico tomorrow a.m. Don't know how far we will go tomorrow. There is a little town I've wanted to stop at not too far from the border. Father Kino's remains are supposed to be there.
The Driver wants to get to Bahia de Kino so he can get huevos rancheros for breakfast. We'll see.
Sure hope the satellite continues to work. Phone calls will be getting expensive.

Those were neat. Looks like an artists town. Tell THE DRIVER to slow down and smell the cactus. Men are so destination oriented.

Loved the pictures and look forward to more from Mexico. Have a safe trip.

Beautiful! There's so much of Arizona I've never seen yet. Have a wonderful time in Mexico. Someday . . . .

Kind of weird that the whole town would be shuttered up tight. Wonder what happened or what was going on? You would think if they had to evacuate for some reason that there would be signs of some sort up telling people to "Keep Out" or even close the road to the town. Would love to know where everyone has gone and why!!!

Would be a really neat place to go visit. Maybe??? I wonder if ya stayed overnight if you would disappear????

Strange that there were no people around so I went to their Chamber of Commerce web site and found this:

I guess they just wanted to stay home with their families for Thanksgiving Day. Bad for us but good for them.
