    I lived my first 6 years in Ajo. We moved in early 1977. If you are still there we lived on Guest House drive which is on the sw side of town between the school and the open pit mine. We used to walk down to the town park and every year they had a Christmas celebration there. We would also go to the lookout above the open pit frequently as it was only a few minutes walk. My mom would take us hiking up A mountain while my dad would go golfing at the golf course on the north side of town.

    I have a Coleman camp oven like yours. Love, love love it! If you have problems with things burning in the bottom and raw on top. Get a pizza stone and put it in the very bottom. Works perfectly.

    How is the ground on the dog's feet? Do they ever get pricked by that deadly looking cactii? How do you keep from getting lost. I don't see any road signs. Do you follow GPS coordinates to not get lost? The Christmas tree is so cute! Lunch looks yummy.
