Apache Trail

We finally did the whole trail to Roosevelt Dam.

Valle del Oro Resort, Mesa, Arizona

This is a beautiful spot. Right off I-60 just a few miles from Mesa and Landis Bike Shop. Not too far from Apache Junction and beautiful Superstition Mountain. Great Hiking. We are signed up for another week till the end of the month. Then we head to Las Vegas and the Utah National Parks.

Our Friends Peter and Patty

Our very special friends Peter and Patty from Quartzsite. They are the greatest hosts anyone could ever have. We are sorry we won't be joining them on the trip to Alaska, we wish them safe journey and hope to meet them down the road someday soon. Bon Voyage Peter & Patty, safe journey.

Still in Quartzsite Arizona

This is a great place to hike and ATV around the foothills Still here basking in the sun and warmth of Arizona desert. Tony is over his cold and, oh yes, I am finally over mine. I joined a running group called joy_of_running and they have been such a great inspiration and support. I have begun walk/run exercise so I can get rid of some of this fat and I really think that it is the only way I can lose weight/fat. To get my pulse rate up to 120 for 20 minutes at a time for as long as I can hold out is the only way to go because I love to eat and I can burn off a meal that way. Here is what our neighborhood looks like. I'm in heaven with no excuses for not walking. Hi to all our northern friends who are freezing and shoveling, our thoughts are with you, stay warm.

Freightliner our friend or foe?

That little squeak that we heard in the engine, well it was a bigger squeak then we thought. so we spent 2 nights at the repair place.

Our 2008 Adventures begins...

I am sorry I have left you folks in the lerch...not knowing where we were and what we were doing. We have been so busy getting to warmer weather, and now that it is 60 degrees and sunny here in Casa Grande Arizona I can update my blog, so here goes... Biking on the Rio Grande Bike Path, what a view of the River and the Mountains.

Had a wonderful dinner, hope to get some interesting stories from them when they return from a rafting trip on the Colorado River in April...can't wait.
