Hi everyone from sunny Arizona. At least today is sunny. The past two days have been wet and cold. We are really enjoying our time here in Verde Valley. I have made a lot of new friends and am enjoying playing with them. We have even met up with some people Mom used to work with in Florida. It definitely is a small world.
Yesterday we went to Phoenix to spend time with Mom and Dad's youngest son Trevor, who was is in town for a few days. Trevor gave Dad an early father's day gift of a GPS unit. So now maybe Dad won't get us so lost all of the time.
Today we visited Montezuma's Castle National Monument with our friends, Ron and Fran. This "castle" is a cliff dwelling, dating back to the 1200's, inhabited by the Sinagua people. Even though it is called Montezuma's castle, Montezuma was never here. It was given its' name by US soldiers returning from Mexico. The picture on the left is Mom and me in front of the "castle".
We then headed for Sedona to view all the beautiful red rock formations. The picture on the right is me and Dad in front of one. These are truly awesome sights.
We are now into our last week in Arizona. Next Friday, we head off to Utah.
