Fuel prices rising again - Printable Version

Internet and cell phone have always been good here. Strange, because we are 30 miles from the nearest fuel, water, or provisions. One of our favorite places, regardless.

WeÃ¢â¬â¢ve been in boondock mode since around the first of the year. Have run almost every mile of legal road in the Kofa refuge. It always amazes! Almost ran the Jeep out of fuel. Would have had to tow it to Q with the bus Smile

Made to Q in the Jeep with maybe 20 miles to spare.

Cheers,

Bob,

Mighty impressive to have internet access in Stone Cabin, AZ!

Fuel is a different kind of 'priceless' there, isn't it?

Are you boondocking and doing some off-roading in the Wildlife Refuge?

Enjoy your stay.
