Tubac Wall


Tubac, Arizona is a little town full of artists these days. It was once the site of the Spanish Presidio (HQ/fortress), but this was moved to Tucson after too many Apache raids.

Casa Grande

This is the Casa Grande - in Coolidge, AZ - a structure built by the Hohokam Indians, probably in the 1300s. It was abandoned by the mid-1400s as the Hohokam culture collapsed, no one really knows why.
FYI, the roof-cover is a new addition.:)

As you leave the desert landscape in Tucson and head up towards Mt Lemmon, you enter a very different world. These old petrified guys are its guardians.:)
