WHERE TO START

I have no idea where to start to get caught up on blogging. I’ve spent most of the morning reading blogs. I think I’ve been trying to avoid having to write my own blog. But here goes.

I think I’ll start with our last visit to Q and then catch up on life here in Apache Junction.

It was really fun to pull in and see the surprised expressions on people’s faces. Some of the folks figured we couldn’t stay away and weren’t all that surprised. Do you think they are beginning to know me too well?

IMG_4061 We got rather a late start on a Friday afternoon. This was the traffic we faced as we slowly worked our way through Phoenix. And this was at 3:00 in the afternoon. What is it like at 5:00? Sure glad I don’t have to drive in this kind of a mess anymore. We did get to Q before dark which was our goal. I know I could have found the group in the dark but I sure didn’t want to.

This sunset was definitely worth all that traffic. We had a campfire and I got to meet some of the new folks that had joined our group. Of course I couldn’t recognize anybody the next morning cause it was so dark. But oh, those incredible starry skies. So happy to be here.

  1. Glad to hear that you had a few more days to spend in Q. We hope to go for the day this Saturday, but like you I am looking forward to next year when we can spend more time there. In the mean while we are enjoying everyone's blogs that are there.

  2. Happy you are back at Q.

    In our travels we have never experienced more beautiful sunsets than in Arizona.

    Just our humble opinion.
