What a difference a day makes. Our original plan was to spend another week in Arizona, traveling north, to Fool Hollow Recreation Area, but because of a cold front bringing 50 mph wind and temps in the 20’s we opted to head east to a little state park with a lot of history. Pancho Villa State Park has been a delightful detour. We still had to drive through fierce wind and a dust storm to get here but we are so pleased with the change in plans. Not only have we learned about Mexican revolutionary leader Poncho Villa, but with the park being only 3 miles from the Mexican border we grabbed our bikes and passports and rode down into the town of Paloma, Mexico. What a cool but strange experience to so easily find yourself in another country.
