Today Penny and I headed out of town for some fun. We went to Old Town Cottonwood first. Verde Valley Olive Oil Company is there and we had some purchases we wanted to make. Afterwards we wandered in and out of the shops. I have never spent that much time there before, but it was really fun. Above is the Tavern Hotel. We thought it looked like it might be a nice place to stay. We had lunch in the Tavern Grill across the parking lot.
I saw these see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, saguaro's in a gift shop. I thought they were hilarious. But they wanted too much money for me to buy them. I did find a few vintage salt and pepper shakers that I got though.
A look down the street. After our shopping and lunch. We went to Camp Verde to hit the corn festival. We think we missed out on some of the festivities, but we did indulge in some corn on the cob. It was yummy. Then we found a roadside stand with fresh tomatoes. I had to pick some up to take home. BLT's tonight!
Right around New River we came to a stop on the way home. Down farther we could see lots and lots of emergency vehicles and flashing lights. All on the opposite side of the road. Our traffic was stopping to look. We saw the helicopter land and take off.
As far as we could tell, it was two pickups that were involved in a very bad accident. This black truck was the first one. It was really messed up.
This photo turned out really badly, but this is the second pick up. Torn to bits, on it's side in the middle of the road. There was stuff from the truck spread everywhere. And traffic was backed up forever. We felt badly for whomever was in the accident and felt lucky it wasn't us.
