Staredown

If I was any closer, I would have been worried that this steer was going to charge me.  Maybe he was just curious and wanted to keep an eye on me.  Either way, I kept my distance.

San Raphael Valley

I always think of Arizona as state with lots of cactus and red rocks. They do have plenty of that but the other day I saw another side of the "Grand Canyon State". We drove through the small rural town of Patagonia, south of Tucson, then headed east on a dirt road into this wonderful valley of grassland. No telephone poles or cell towers. Just plenty of cattle, horses, clean air and spectacular blue skies. Taking the road less traveled certainly has its rewards.
