Park It

Weiner Roast A busy “happy hour” with lots of food!  Augie’s suggestion of a hot dog cookout was embraced by most of the park, and even the neighbors.  Jimmy brought over his deep fryer and made french fries.  Augie provided dogs and buns (though he did back out of getting the “special rolls” from Maricopa).  Everyone else brought something, and no-one went hungry.   Cindy’s carrot cake was a personal favorite, and for some reason several people liked my chili. There was lots of socializing, and the only challenge was finding a spot to sit out of the sun. There are lots of reasons to spend time in Why.  The weather is quite pleasant, the night skies are AMAZING, and the wildlife watching is great.  But what makes it so enjoyable are the people, both in the park and around the area.

We went over to Coyote West for a trailer show but they cancelled due to the wind.  Still I was able to take some great pix of trailers and people and one dog...Enjoy

I wanted to write a post and mention a few things about Tohono Oodham lands. These people are allowing us to come on their land and we are allowed to hike or ride bicycles. What we are not allowed to do is we are not allowed to bring motor vehicles of any kind, we are not allowed to pick up any rocks, we are not allowed to disturb anything that we find laying on the ground. I feel that they are very generous in allowing us to hike on their land and bicycle on their land. The reason I am writing this is not because there's been any violations but because I feel very strongly that myself and everyone else must respect their culture and their land. They themselves have a deep respect for each and every rock, plant, animal that is on their land. Please be mindful as you walk on Tohono Oodham land.

we have 2 spots only available tonight

I am a happy to be here resident of Coyote Howls West, Jean at space 20.  Pete and I have been trying to find out why the comment function is not allowing anyone in, actually Pete is doing it, I am watching, my skills on the computer are very limited.  My husband, Charles, and I are new to the area, but are planning on staying.  We actually traded in our big truck for a small one and bought a small trailer for our excursions, and will leave our bigger fifth wheel here as our permanent home. We have always loved the desert and now will have the ability to do some exploring on the back roads!                                                                     We initially stopped at the East park, loved the open bigger spots, but we have a cat , Dolly, we love too much to take a chance on the possibili...

It's been a few days since I've made a post in this blog. I have tried not to mention names in saying things. I don't want to violate anyone's privacy. That being said, the operation of the bypass went well and we' re all happy that she is recovering. It looks like this blog is off to a very slow start. I will persist in making posts in this blog because I want to provide a place for people to see what is going on at Coyote Howls. I do encourage anyone and everyone to make comments as I look forward to seeing what people think and how people feel. The new office has almost been completed. I jokingly refer to it as my guest house. J and R should be getting back from Phoenix today. We've also had two or three other people who have gone on little side trips. G and J just got back from Kansas. C and J just planted a row of peas. Our community garden is going kind of nice. My next post will be some pictures of our beautiful park. Stay tuned.
