NORTH RANCH ESCAPEE PARK
This is our beautiful AZ winter home. It is also home to a variety of birds and wildlife. We usually
arrive here in February and spend a couple of months giving our lot some TLC (weeding, trimming, etc). This year (2005)
our neighbors, Paul and Nancy Wilson, invited us to go
"4-wheeling" in the desert. It was great!

| OUR NEIGHBOR'S EASTER CACTUS |
|
Our neighbors across the street are Dave and Marie Dengate. This is their beautiful Easter Cactus.
It still has lots of buds ready to bloom.

Our neighbors, Del and Pat Holowel, planted this cactus "pup" for us a little over a year ago.
Look at it now.

| VULTURE PEAK |
|
This is the view from our big rear bay windows. There is a beautiful hiking trail
to the top of Vulture Peak. Last year, we hiked to the saddle of Vulture Peak with our friends John and Ginger Olson
from South Dakota. Check out our Webshots album "Custer State Park 1st Annual Rally at North Ranch" for pictures of
our hike to Vulture Peak. This year, we hiked to the saddle again with our HDT friends Jack & Danielle Mayer
and Mark Pelow. BUT...Jack, Mike and Pat went all the way to the top this time. It was pretty steep
and lots of rock climbing, but we made it. There were 2 GeoCache containers on the top. One had a log book to
sign from the Chamber of Commerce in Wickenburg. The other one was empty. Quite an accomplishment and we're mighty
proud of ourselves!!! There are more pictures of our hike to Vulture Peak on our Webshots web site.
A view from the top. Jack and Pat are climbing down the rocks
but they're hard to see.
