After a couple of days off for ‘housekeeping’ and shopping – I tried to find something warm to wear (who knew winter in Arizona required warmer clothing than summer) – we headed out to Sycamore Creek. Just down Power road to Bush Highway and Hwy 87, past a staging area, then down a sandy back trail to Sycamore creek in our search for Pink Marble. After traveling down the trail we finally made it to Sycamore Creek. There, we turned left – instead of right. Yes right would have been correct. So we spent the next few hours wandering trails in the wash, experiencing Roxie’s first off-road trip! Very exciting, me cringing at every bump! Finally we stopped for lunch and I took a walk down one of the side roads. We knew by then we would have to go back to our information and try again another day – so back to the wash, stopping so Karen could have a look – a group of ATV’s went by – then straight towards the hill and back down the sandy trail to Bush Highway and home.
