Bats over Green Valley

I arrive at the rest stop after 10 and once again, I'm thrilled at the bats swooping around gobbling up their 2000 mosquitoes or other flying insects a night. I think they're around the rest stop and especially visible around the rest stop because of the giant lights that attract them! The pics didn't turn out so great but there you have it!

Ajo, AZ

I've inadvertently left my computer behind at home and the libraries here are closed on the weekends...grrrrr

I drive to Ajo, stopping at the thrift store on the main road operated by the three local Indigenous Nations of the O'odham people and find a new (to me) pair of sandals and a filter I can use on my veg oil system. YEAH!

I proceed to one of the Samaritan/No More Deaths volunteers to unload, organize and distribute boxes of food, bags of baby clothes, diapers, and womyn's clothing along with several backpacks.

Then I'm invited to take a swim, which I gratefully do. The pool is about 40' in length and 10' wide, with no chlorine but salt and ione based purifiers! DOUBLE YEAH!

I leave before dark for Green Valley so I can join the search tomorrow morning in the desert for refugees in trouble or waiting for border patrol to be picked up and then processed as they seek asylum.
