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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Today is the day for Bridget to get a tour of her dorm. There was a full travel day planned but it ended up being abbreviated a bit due to the heat. Started the day watching a couple of coyotes walking around the basin which is being flooded.
June 18, 2021
Today was another hot one so we didn't really do anything very taxing. My hip has been bothering me a little lately so we went to the local VA clinic while Jeff and his family were all busy with other things.
June 17, 2021
Watched a couple of coyotes walking around the basins while we drank our morning coffee. We golfed at the Ocotillo Golf Club. It is a beautiful Phil Mickelson owned club and was very challenging with a lot of water. All but 4 holes had water hazards on them.
