Well, we decided to let someone else do a tour for once! On our way through Picacho Peak we visited Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich Ranch. It was a blast! Alison, Jason, baby Chloe and I fed baby deer, was pinched by craxy ostriches and accosted by colorful Lorikeets. They also have "DonkeyTown" where they have about 15 minis - including a little baby mini donkey. I hate to say it, but the baby may be the cutest thing - ever.
We met the owner, "Rooster" as he heard us screaming like babies in the Lorikeet aviary. Although we have lots of chickens on the farm, it was a new expirience going in the aviary and being covered with birds. He is a real character and we actually spent over an hour talking to him about our respective ventures and adventures. In fact, we left as friends.
If you are heading back East or to The Old Pueblo, take 15-20 minutes (he really doesnt want people to spend more time than that - heehee) out of your roadtrip and visit his ranch. It is a wonderful roadside attraction and you will not find anything like it anywhere. Tell 'em Superstition Farm sent ya.....
