We had an interesting adventure to Oatman and Christmas Tree Pass. Oatman is about 20 miles southeast of Bullhead City. It is an old gold mining town that is now a tourist trap. The typical junk stores and snacks shops full of milling people. The exciting thing there, is they have wild burrows wandering around the road up there and in town. We brought carrots to feed them which thrilled Yvonne.

We then travelled northwest of Bullhead City over to Nevada to see Grapevine Canyon Petroglyphs at Christmas Tree Pass. This must be about 2 to 3,000 feet higher in elevation that Bullhead City, so we got absolutely awesome views of the Colorado River Valley. The Canyon is filled with great examples of ancient Indian petroglyphs. We just wish we knew what they were trying to tell us!!

Our excitement of the day was to return home to a front door we can't get open. Our first reaction is that someone tried to break in during our time away, but Jim assures us that the lock just happened to fail today. Lucky thing is we have the back door to get in. We still can't get the front door open, even from the inside, so we will have the locksmith out to fix it tomorrow.
