Day Nine - Sunday - Loop Around Sahuarita to Tombstone and Coronado National Forest

Day 9 Sunday: 08:00 The 4 of us had breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express. It may not have been as good as Bill's breakfast in the BIG HOUSE.

We road mostly south & southeast of Tucson,AZ. We had views of mountain ranges such as:
The Santa Rita Mountains, located about 65 km (40 mi) southeast of Tucson, Arizona, extend 42 km (26 mi) from north to south, then trending southeast. They merge again southeastwards into the Patagonia Mountains, trending northwest by southeast. The highest point in the range, and the highest point in the Tucson area, is Mount Wrightson, with an elevation of 9,453 feet (2,881 m), The range contains Madera Canyon, one of the world's premier birding areas.

Day 9 - Sunday - Enjoying Tombstone, AZ
We had a nice ride out to Tombstone, what a neat old western town. It took a while but I managed to talk the Dogs into an old-time photo. LOL



































Day Nine - Sunday - In the Copper Mining Town of Bisbee, AZ



















The "PUCKER OF THE DAY" Nothing major today just some road kill. I think it was a dead coyote.
Ohh Yea, and I don't know if this counts as a PICKER but 4 of us sure did, while getting ready to leave Bisbee one of the Dogs, I won't mention names (red motorcycle), ripped one that sent a fog across the parking lot that brought us to our knees. Needles to say he had to ride #5 position. LOL
