Trip Log

June 29, 2021

Today is our last full day in Arizona and we fly out at 5:11 tomorrow evening. My old phone was delivered today by FedEx Ground and we took it to the Verizon store and traded it in for a $700 credit on Bailey's new phone.

Called the Apple support line and after over an hour they recreated all the problems I had then were finally able to download the file to Alesa's ringtones. She is very happy to now have Bailey's voice announcing her calls.

During morning coffee saw all the critters hide in the basin as a hawk landed in a tree. After breakfast Jeff, Danielle, Alesa and I played pickleball after the morning crowd cleared. Cooled off in the pool and watched a roadrunner run through the yard, beep! beep!.

June 26, 2021

Having missed last Christmas with family it was decided that today we would do some of the Christmas traditions. Started the day watching the coyotes hunt in the basin. Jeff rebuilt his floating beer pong table using ASU colors as close as he could.

June 25, 2021

Today we golfed the Dinosaur Mountain course at Gold Canyon Golf Resort in the shadow of the Superstition Mountains. You can see the humps in some of the pictures which makes it look like a sleeping dinosaur.

June 24, 2021

Flying home next Wednesday evening. Took a long bike ride this morning. Jeff was going to go but he had a call with his new job. He got a great package from Dupont and starts a new job in a couple of weeks.

June 23, 2021

Got some rain last night. Jeff said about a quarter of an inch but we slept through it. Sprinkled very lightly a couple of times during the day but it looks like most of it fell on the west and north valley.

June 22, 2021

Did our normal walk this morning and settled in for the day. The family were all at work so we had much of the day to ourselves. Alesa's new iPhone is keeping us busy and providing a good reason for some R&R.

June 21, 2021

Took a 4 mile desert hike today in the San Tan mountains. It was a nice walk with plenty of water, a breeze and only 106 degrees. We walked the Dynamite Trail and the path was rocky but not too steep.

June 20, 2021

Started the day with coffee and a short walk around the basin. Spent much of the day in the pool playing volleyball and drinking beer. It is still very hot but the heat advisory is supposed to end tonight. We watched golf and Olympic trials.
