Copper Corridor

Nov 20/17  Weather 86 low 50.  Everyday sunshine!
 We have just been vegetating(and it feels soooo good) at Catalina State Park.  It is so peaceful here and the views are so great we just sit outside and read or listen to music or walk or find mindless other things to do.  We are staying 8 days and only went for one ride.  It was a great R & R place to camp.

Motoring up to Globe (Apache call it the Place of Metal) takes you through old mining area and even some current mining in Winkleman.  This ride is called the Copper Corridor Scenic Byway.
Globe
Globe has seen some better days but has some cool old signs in the historic downtown and we found a wonder cafe for lunch; The Copper Hen Cafe.  Might have had the best quiche ever.  So you just never know what the ride will bring.
Bet American Pickers would love this sign
