Patagonia and Nogales

Patagonia is an awsome little alternative town.  Think there are bout 800 people living there.  I entered it and saw the health food store which i think is the only food store (grocery type) in town.  It had been a long time since I had my favorite traveling bread...that heavy rye, nice and compact.  I also got a bag of apples from the valley and the best pesto I have every had!!  Lots of fresh garlic and wow was it good.  I camped at patagonia lake and as I was setting up my tent I saw patties placed around the park.  Horses I thought.....this is horse country after all.  Near dusk I was surprized to see a bunch of cattle roam through mowing down the grasses.   We both kept our distance and all was good.  Figured the park and ranchers had a deal going on.  Turns out that the cattle were runaways from a local pasture and the rancher had not come to get them yet.

Not much to say about Nogales.  Like the name.  It is a spanish word for walnut trees.  Had lunch there and stuffed myself silly with beans.
