Fun at Nextcare

After starting the morning doing my normal Friday job of washing clothes, my next fun thing was going to the Urgent Care with a case of bronchitis. After the X-ray and breathing test I wound up with antibotics and a pat on the back. What fun. Hopefully tomorrow I will be back to feeling almost human.

Happy New Year

Well Christmas is behind us and the New Year is just ahead. 2006 has been a fine year for us with travels from San Diego to Maine and back to Mesa.
Mesa has not been great weather wise, alot of wind, cold and it has rained twice this last week. We also had fog the other day, a first since we have been to Arizona now five years.
We will not do anything New Years eve as there are to many crazy's out. Softball starts Jan 2 and I will try to play another year on these 65 year old knees.
Look forward to doing more 4 wheeling and hiking after the first of the year WHEN the weather warms up.
Expect some friends to arrive from Kansas City in the next few weeks. Will be glad to see them.

Off Roading by Kevin and Kerney












Sat we went on this 4 wheel drive road down by Kevin and Kerney AZ. This is some of the back county that is so pretty in AZ. The mountains are beautiful and the desert is wonderful. Saw a lot of tracks, but no animals this trip. The road or trails were so rough we could not get through without our 4 wheel SUV. Norma was afraid that we were going in the river at one point, but we didn't.




This cactus must be over 200 years old. They do not get arms until 75 years.
