When I went out for a walk this afternoon, I was looking for foot prints on the other side of the fence. It's very obvious that there have been frequent visitors. There is multiple evidence of both cow and horse traffic. We've seen cattle three times in the three weeks we've been here, but we've never seen the horses, though they've left many deposits behind. I did hear whinneying one afternoon when I was sitting outside, but that's been about it. Only twice have we seen critters in the daytime.
Even when we have heard and seen cows, it isn't easy to see them for very long. There are lots of mesquite and other shrubs that head down the gulch towards the Verde River valley. We watched a couple of cows as they appeared and disappeared into the brush, but we very quickly lost track of them.
Forry went out on the trike for a ride when I got back. He's been making a loop back and forth and around the RV park. It's marked out as a mile if you make the whole trek.
