Phoenix, November 30, 2020

 

We got away for a bit by driving down to Phoenix the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Just me and Mike.  The drive was uneventful and we like that.  Not early to bed. Slept in Sunday. Readied for online church. Only one of the two meetings worked. Half was better than none. 

I mapped out our "plans," which includes dinner with family members(Lesa &John Nuccio) on Thursday,  some sight seeing, and a train ride in Clarkdale on Tuesday.

After a Monday morning sales meeting about Timeshares, we had a good breakfast of hashbrowns and eggs and "ham", then drove to Scottsdale and saw some horses,

Rabbits "One-Eyed-Jack",

Arizona Falls, 

Decorated agave plants, the Solaris Bridge.

Doors and Sounds sculpture. Pretty cool.

Sushi and a bento box for lunch at a noodle shop.

Fun day. Pie for dinner, then Christmas movies on TV for the evening. I also dried apples all day. :-)

Fall Leaves

The leaves were racing me home today

Red, yellow, golden brown,

Swirling and twirling with joy

as if to distract me or get in my way.

Yet I rode steadily on

admiring their beauty, but not discomposed.

The leaves were racing me home today .. .

I won!
