Welcome to the reoccurring feature on Maybe A Weekend, Photo Roulette. I’ve taken a lot of photographs over the years since I bought my first digital cameras. I’ve always subscribed to the theory that it’s better to get a photo now, then regretting not getting the photo later. Every photo tells a story for me even the most random ones. So from time to time I will post a photo here that may seem pointless, but with a little background will give you a greater idea of the man behind Maybe A Weekend.
For today’s entry…
So the day was January 24, 2016, I was on a day trip to Crystal Hill on the Kofa National Wildlife Refuge. My goal for the day was to explore a different area of the Kofa NWR and reach the area that allowed limited rockhounding. After turning off Highway 95, we drove down the graded gravel road for about 6 miles, but after about 3 miles we encountered a very curious sight. I’ve seen people boondocking out in the Arizona desert before, but usually in SUVs or RVs, but never in an old school bus. Being cautious and also considerate, we kept our distance yet I still snapped a few photos. After reviewing my photos that’s when I realized that there was a canoe strapped to the top of the bus. The whole situation piqued my curiosity to know if it was a converted bus inside that would resemble an RV or just a standard bus with an improvised bed. I kept my curiosity in check and decided to continue down the road to my final destination to find some nice pieces of quartz.
