De Anza Trail Ride Report 3/18/06
On a clear morning, with just a hint of the winds to come, 22 riders took off on the De Anza Trail. The ride was led by Tom and Dottie Watson. The group left Tumacacori, heading aling the Santa Cruz river toward Tubac. Along the way we were treated views of the river, hummingbirds and three water crossings. The trail is now protected by gates, so that you are not competing with ATVs. Although some of the gates wer slightly narrow, everyone got through without difficulty. We arrived in Tubac in time for the merchants to have their wares on display. Despite the colorful pots, and elaborate art work we could view from our mounts, as we rode through town, the horses were most interested in some llamas watching from a field by the road. On the journey back we were acccompanied by two hawks circling overhead, enjoying the winds, which had picked up considerably! We all enjoyed a delicious lunch afterwards at the Longhorn Grill. Thanks to Tom and Dottie for planning a great outing and for picking the day which missed the rain.
