Welcome to the photo blog for David and Janet Elmore. You can find pages full of photos from our trips with Vanessa or Savanna (our van-based RV) and pages that are a record of events with lots of photos. Many of our travel photos are connected to a map at the bottom of our posts so you can see where we went and can look for photos at specific places.
Below is a list of recent posts.

Before leaving Roper Lake SP we decided to hike the Mariah Mesa Trail —a short (less than a mile) trail up to a mesa with spectacular views of the Gila River Valley and surrounding mountains. While on the...
The plan: Get up in the morning and head to El Paso. With all the unsettled weather across the country, the one place that looked to have warmer and, perhaps calmer, weather is Texas. But we awoke to driving...
We left KOFA, stopped in Quartzite to take on water and dump. Unfortunately the dump at the RV Pitstop didn’t have a working dump so we continued on — interstate 10 through Phoenix then 60 to East to Globe...

We spent a quiet day parked near the Queen Canyon Road. We did a little housekeeping, had showers, and walked around in the desert so David could take yet more pictures. Lots of four-wheel buggies passed by....
We moved about 25 miles to another site off a four-wheel drive track. We moved because we like to see new desert and because we have good ATT service here. It truly is interesting how the desert changes....
David spent a while in the AM catching up on news articles. We may not have ATT service when we travel further into the refuge. We left our site on the road to the horse tanks (#42) and headed back to the...
We are in the KOFA Wildlife Refuge parked off an unnamed four-wheel drive road which leads from King Road to some “horse tanks.” The road can be transverse by most any vehicle with high clearance. There are...
The KOFA Wildlife Refuge is about 40 miles north of Yuma. It is a huge area of mountains and desert filled with cacti. There are dirt roads that crisscross the area that are suitable for any high clearance...
Dave, one of David’s former PhD students, works at Marine Corp Air Station Yuma (MCAS) as a data analyst . He was able to take us on a tour of his office space and the hanger where they repair the airships...
