Sunrise over T648’s tent city in the desert outside Vulture Mine
A hoodie huddle during breakfast-prep warms a scout’s cold bones riiiight up!
Once fed – ready to invade Wickenburg’s Western Smithsonian Affiliate
How much silver did she say is on that saddle???
They don’t let us on the fancy saddles, but these will do just fine!
Saddles, guns, apothecaries, saloons – everything you’d ever want in the wild, wild west!
We retire to a quick game of football (?) Uno, before the evening’s entertainment.
Tonight we practice exercising our vocal cords before tackling Vulture Mine
On to a semi-spooky night tour of the most productive gold/silver mine in old-time Arizona
A scout can work up a major thirst at these here desert outings!
