Hi All, here we are in AZ, in the middle of Auction Madness; great fun. As I mentioned in a previous thread, I came upon a very nice P15, by accident, while driving PLYWOOD, on the Pima Res back roads. I'll let the photos speak for themselves, except to introduce Freddie Lewis, Patriarch of the clan compound, standing in front of his Dodge pickup, currently being prepared for a new paint job. Enjoy.

Got to ask, where do they use the boat that can be seen to the side? Having never been to Arizona, I always just assumed there was very little water out there.

Great pictures. Thanks.

Heading due East of the Res, there are four man made lakes, 30 - 60 miles distance range, connected together on the Salt River. From West to East they are Saguaro, Canyon, Apache and Roosevelt; with many miles of coast line.

Well....there's

Lake Powell, Arizona is named after John Wesley Powell, a Civil War veteran who in 1869, lead a group of explorers down the Colorado and Green River. Lake Powell is 186 miles long. It has 100 side canyons and 1, 960 miles of shoreline. The lake was created by the damming of the Colorado River. After Lake Mead, Lake Powell, Arizona is the second largest man-made lake in the U.S.

One O these days I'm gonna plop my patio boat in it.
