More meandering near camp, and another mural.

 Sunday, February 27

Relaxed at the campsite most of the day, enjoying the warm weather.  I did reposition the VRRV in terms of blocking the occasional gust of wind, resulting in feeling even warmer conditions.



Sometime in the morning, the "Eye of Sauron" appeared overhead.  This is from skyandtelescope.org: 

A Sun halo, a circle of light that creates a circle 22° wide around the Sun, is a related phenomenon. As with sundogs, hexagonal ice crystals suspended in cirrostratus clouds refract sunlight to create the halo, sometimes also called an icebow, nimbus, or gloriole.

Went into nearby Ajo for groceries, before that though, I went to the County Dump off of Rasmussen Street and paid $5 for the privilege of recycling aluminum cans and glass bottles.  Sigh.

Got the groceries and then stopped to photograph the murals I'd spotted before on the side of the NAPA store nearby:





The opposite wall has a great motorcycle-themed mural of sorts, see what you think:

Here's the mural in sections for greater detail perhaps:

RichardM, I have to say this mural is my favorite one of all the ones I've seen there in Ajo.
