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.

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...

We had to move today. We had planned to stay here just three days, but decided to extend another two days. It was not unexpected that we couldn’t stay in the same site. Moving is not a problem: bring in the...
Today we drove south toward the border, then turned west on a very dusty road that paralleled the border wall. The wall here is like the one we saw in Texas — steel “pickets” about 30 feet high. After six...
After a quiet morning, we took the Ajo Canyon drive to access the Estes Canyon hiking trail. The drive is a mostly gravel/dirt road through 21 miles of mesquite, cacti, brittle bush, and mountain views ....
The drive from Tucson to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument is ideal if you enjoy cactus. So many varieties : cholla, prickly pear, the majestic saguaro, organ pipe, barrel, and even a senita. As we entered...
We left Kartchner Caverns SP for a short drive into Tucson for the 20K service on our Sprinter van. They have a new facility on the southeast side of town that is easier to negotiate than the one on Grant...
