Now THAT was a treat, wasn't it!
  I was mad at my hubby, took the truck out and did some back roads and 
there in the middle of the road was a Gila Monster!  I stopped, got out 
and just admired him!  Didn't have the camera! UGH!
Now the only animal I am still looking to see in the Superstitions is 
the Miner's Cat (ringtail)!
