"Aravaipa Canyon, Cochise, minor UFO"
Being an old rock hunter since I can remember, always heard about the Fire Agate that comes out of Aravaipa Canyon. Aravaipa Canyon and southeast Arizona was "Cochise" country, he was a "Chiricahua Apache", cousin's to the "Apache" to the north, now days called "White Mountain Apache's". "Cochise" and his warrior's loved venturing into "Mexico" to plunder the "Mexican's", then run back north into the "Chiricahuas" and "Dragoon" mountains to the north. Where no one find you, unless you wanted to be found, bowling pin shaped mountains, the Army didn't like venturing in their, to chase "Cochise' around. "Cochise" and "Geronimo" were birds of a feather, constant wandering and lighting attacks, always on the move. Hard to hit a moving target that always on high ground one step ahead of you, "Arizona". Dave S. had a friend that said he would like to go rock hunting with me, said he heard stories about me and UFO's but wasn't scared. Fine with me don't like to get to far out with out help along. "Aravaipa" is southwest of "Safford" Az., down the worst wash boarded road you'll ever be on, forty five miles just to get to the small stream that feed into "Aravaipa Canyon". We were headed to the base of "Kennedy" mountain, to the east of "Aravaipa" to look for Fire Agate and sit up camp. On the way up we talked about "Billy B." and mechanical cow's because of the "Dave S." connect. Spent the afternoon rock hunting near base of "Mt. Kennedy", all of a sudden this sound, not like with "Billy B", but mechanical, odd. I keep looking for rocks, gotten use to all this going on around me, not as scared as before when it started. Needless to say the kid saw it, a round disk, like a half dollar going by on it's side, headed right into "Aravaipa Canyon". After that the kid keep pretty close to me, like I had some kind of power to protect him, wrong. The rock "God's" were with us, we did find some cool stones, even some fair fire agate on the surface, most been picked up years ago. Meet people selling the stones from a near by mine at "Tucson" gem show. That night we sit up camp, told kid he would have to chase fire wood and I'll cook. When camping in "Arizona", rarely do you find fire wood close by, to many damn hunters of animals. Notice I can always see the kid's head, yell out, are you finding any fire wood that close to camp, he yells back no, after the "Billy B." trip, I'm not leaving out of your sight to get fire wood. thank God I've learned to always have a coleman stove with me, had a good supper, vegetarian pasta, but no camp fire. bye PS Had to go to court, called in for jury selection, thank "God" I didn't get pick would of tried to convence other jurys they could be "Marian's". The state didn't want some person like me, mixing it up with the local's any way. A friend belong to what I'd call an "Arayan" church, all most all blonde's, in the church, their all so proud, some "Black's" in "Africa" joined their church, see he said even the "Black's" like us, told you we're the one's.
