Phoenix

John has been hearing from folks about my tardiness in blogging since our arrival in Phoenix. His sister and her husband live here and have shared their time with us, so we've been touring the area and playing trivia with them.


We drove through the rugged Superstition Mountains to Canyon Lake, lunching at Tortilla Flat.


Phoenix weather has been experiencing days of unusual cold and even a few rainy ones since our arrival.





We drove through a huge dust/thunder/wind storm on the way to Casa Grande! The same storm that caused multi-car pileups on I-10 in the same area.


Casa Grande was shrouded in the dust/thunder/wind storm by the time we arrived, so we visited the museum and dashed out to the main ruin between showers.
