Still stuck

Apache Junction
While we are waiting for our brake part we are still in the Phoenix area. Now the shop is shut down until Monday. We have moved into a campsite at Apache Junction. A rich vein of history runs through this area. The Apache Trail once served as a stage coach and freight wagon route. Indians, cowboys and miners all roamed the Superstition Mountains. We took a drive today to Goldfield Ghost Town. The original buildings still stand and they have preserved the town and added actors to dress up like the people of the old west. We quite enjoyed our visit. See the pictures below. It is very hot and dry here. Sure wouldn’t want to live here permanently. It is also very hot ( 39 degrees c.)
