Recent Goings On at the Roving Riders Roost

Bob and Jo of How to Love Where You Are and Eat Where the Locals Eat!! have been lot sitting next to us for the last couple of weeks and we have been having fun!

One of the main activities have been exploring the surrounding desert in our 4 seater "desert mobile", our blue buggy! None of these excursions out into the desert disappointed us! Lindy was reminded of Bryd Baylor's book The Desert is Theirs. Now this is billed as a children's book, but if you have come across any of her books, you, along with Lindy, will dispute that label. Baylor says that "You may think of the desert as a harsh, dry place where no one would ever want to live--but think again."


Here we go:  The Desert Is.....

We always enjoy our journeys out and about the land surrounding North Ranch, and we believe Bob and Jo did as well. And, we have to post this picture:

We attended the 35th Wickenburg Blue Grass Festival Saturday. We sat and listened for a spell,
walked around shopping, and of course eating! One cannot spend time with Bob and Jo and NOT eat! The Riders went out to eat more in Wickenburg than ever before, thanks to the Bob and Jo's influence! Can you tell we all had a GREAT time?!

More later from the Desert Dwellers SWIRVIN around the cactus.
