Alpine Area



 We took advantage of having a loaner car while our truck was in the shop and took a day trip.  We went to Alpine, Az.  Alpine is a small town - very small -- with a few RV parks and a cafe, a few cabins and summer cottages.  It's at 8000 feet so its nice and cool in the summer.  We thought we would check it out as a possible summer getaway place.  We decided it was a little too remote but it was a very pretty area.

We went a little farther - almost to the New Mexico border and found a pretty lake.  You can see the egrets and herons fishing in it.  We saw quite a few folks fishing along shore and from boats and canoes.   We stopped at another small reservoir and I got pictures of this hummingbird moth.  I've never seen one with so much color to it.
