DENNY MILLS POWERED PARACHUTE

Paul is taking this shot from ABOVE. Notice how tilted the chute is, and take note of Denny's wheels! (glad I wasn't on this flight, lol)
above the runway

cruising the glorious desert

narrow runway at Brenda

Nice landing!





Flying low and slow over the desert floor.


Pretty sky


Like a pendulum!

Interesting sky

Perfect landing

GEOCACHING

Denny Mills pays Bill Mills a tearful tribute.....OK, he really doesn't know him.
Garey C. finds a cleverly hidden geocache

Jo Ann does the journal entry


putting on gloves before removing the rocks...can you see the geocache?



So little rain out here, the tins stay new looking.


Geocache in honor of Bill Mills, whose memorial cross shows behind Garey.

Treasures from the geocache Jo Ann, always smiling and cheerful.



Bill Mills' memorial


card found in the geocache: too funny!

HAVING FUN

Denny almost sends the water tank over the bank
Galen pops a little wheelie

Judy waves: this gal is a GOOD SPORT. Just a month after hernia surgery, she's keeping up with the RZRs on her quad, and always smiling. You go girl!!!



MORE MINES

Gary K. and Judy check out a messy mine
The two "Gary's"

Has Paul finally buried himself in BS? Denny is grinning, so maybe!


Climbing up the hillside to another shaft opening


View from the shaft


MORE ADVENTURES NEAR SOUTHERN CROSS

We all climbed up to another mine in the area
View from the shaft

Our wheelers below


Paul finds a ladder and new shaft in the mine

a large new room opens up

Everyone else waits below

Looking back out to the entrance


checking out the rocks, lots of rose quartz


It's always the same temperature in the mines
Garey and JoAnn testing the new RZR on the rough trails


Discussing the next adventure

No flowers in bloom yet, but beautiful just the same



Galen and Judy having a good time

SOUTHERN CROSS MINE AND AREA

What is Gary Kelderman up to??
building something with that old board?

mischievous grin, he's up to something!


He trapped us in the mine!/
