Apache Junction, AZ H 84 L 55
My good friend, Judy, sent me this picture this morning. This is her back yard in Billings, MT where we are headed. As much as the heat down here in Arizona can be pretty miserable, I would much rather be in the heat then in the snow and cold. So I told Judy that she had to make sure the sun was out and shining or I was not going to be happy.
Today is beautiful here in AZ. Almost perfect except a little windy. The lower temps make it easier to get the stuff done that’s on our list to get out of here.
Went to dinner last night with Don Faye. Faye had her spleen removed a week ago and feels better than she has in years. I am so happy for her. Their doctors have also released them to get out of town next week.
Jim has been torquing and lubing and straightening and who knows what else so we will be ready to leave Wednesday morning. I’ve been reading. All the stuff I need to do (laundry, putting everything away, grocery shopping, etc.) will all be done on Monday and Tuesday.
You sure don't have to shovel heat! Hope you have snow tires... ;c)
ReplyDeleteGood grief! S. N. O. W. oh yuck. We will just stay indoors and enjoy the AC.
ReplyDeleteHope the snow's all gone by the time you get there. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip to Billings but.....snow? Snow? Are you kidding me? I never want to see that stuff again. Well, maybe I could stand seeing a few flurries but no accumulation on the ground.
ReplyDeleteI would much rather be in the heat than in the snow and cold.
ReplyDeleteYou and us both!!!

I'm sure it was just a anomaly. It's gorgeous here.
ReplyDeleteWe too got snow up here in the hills! Typical for Montana Memorial Day weekend.
ReplyDeleteOur son called from Yellowstone and it was snowing.
ReplyDeleteOregon is nice!! We had a little rain but it's not hot and it's not cold - just perfect. Hope all the snow is gone by the time you reach your destination.
ReplyDeleteCarrie just left Helene, MO, yesterday. We will have to ask her if there was any snow up that way.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you want to take it nice and slow going back home. Give the snow time to move on.
Tell Jim not to overdo it. He still has several days to get ready. Enjoy your holiday weekend.
And now for a differing opinion, wIth snow you can stay inside, wIth cold you can add layers. But with heat there is only so much you can or should delayer if you want to stay modest.
ReplyDeletesun or snow..you have been sitting still for while so moving on down the road sounds like a great idea!..hope the snow melts by the time you get to Montana!
ReplyDeleteI have friends on their way to Alaska. They are at Reed Point MT this weekend and yes, it is snowing.
ReplyDeleteThink of the snow as a tourist attraction:)
ReplyDeleteSNOW!!!!! Is that what that stuff is? Evidently, Mr. Weatherman got screwed up with the seasons.
ReplyDeleteHowdy you two!
ReplyDeleteIt is FREEZING back here!!! So wishing we were back down south!!! (well, if we were near a pool! lol!).
Looking forward to seeing you soon! We are actually out at White Sandy and the fishing should be good once the weather warms up starting Monday :)
I wish I was still in Arizona than here in Utah - I'm freezing!
ReplyDeleteHeHe....you wanted to get out of the Arizona heat...be careful what you ask for! Actually Billings sounds perfectly wonderful....wish we were going.
ReplyDeleteAw, gowan and roll in the snow it'll feel good! But I'm betting it will be gone by the time you get there.
ReplyDeleteOh my!! Its pretty, tho:). Been extra breezy and humid in west Texas, where hubs is working, oh how the natives are complaining, feels like home (east Texas) to me. Hope everything goes sssmmmmoooooooothly for your trip north tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteSnow = UGH ! I still can't believe that Jim is doing so much after just getting through TWO major surgeries !!
ReplyDeleteTell Jim to take it easy he'll need his energy to throw snowballs when you get to Billings!! Lol Happy Trails.
