Arizona Road Trip

Carol and I did a "Road Trip" to Arizona 21 May - 6 June 2017. We used four days to get there and four days to return to our Virginia home.
Eight days within Arizona's canyons was NOT enough time. I really enjoyed the high canyons of South Arizona.
Learned a couple of important things:
(1) When traveling out of your time zone and you're using multiple cameras; make sure you set for time zone and time accuracy.
(2) Take good notes of where you were when you took photos!

Wonderful photographs from your recent trip. I met you briefly on Super Trail, in Madera Canyon, the morning of Memorial Day, when we chatted and you gave me your card. We were both looking for elegant trogons. I hope you had some success - I did see a photo in your collection. Congratulations! I keep some of my own stories and photos about nature in Arizona at www.MikeintheWild.com Mike
