I'm home safe and sound but I think I've skidded in broadside, totally used up, thoroughly worn out!
What a Ride!!!
Oh my, where to start, where to start…
Well, Magz is doing a GREAT job of keeping you updated with the adventure, and her pictures are really helping fill out the stories, I took a few of my own (the old fashioned way, on a disposable camera!) so wait a few days, I may have some more to add.
I'm too dang pooped to write much tonite, but I will leave you with a few 'snapshots' that are running through my mind as I come in tonite:
The Heat. Sometimes oppressive. Sometimes rather comfortable. But always there.
Icy cold water to jump into.
Whoopie-doo roads and CB radios ("Have yourself a big ole safe day"...)
A summer shower waited out under a barn awning
Saguaro cactuses and mesquite trees with thorns.
Reverie and camaraderie
Music, private guitar performances on the tailgate and dancing in the dust
Dogs and ice-chest water bowls
Long days, beautiful sunsets, and oh so starry nites
And a sister to make it all possible! Thanks Sis! I love you!

Welcome home, Ally. Thank you both for inviting me along. I enjoyed myself too. I'd like to hear more about the summer shower waited out under a barn awning. Any pics of that? And about the "Whoopie-doo roads and CB radios". 10-4??
Welcome back Ally, was a great fun ride even from this distance! :o)
Glad you're home safe and sound. Oh, and thanks for the post over there about the moment with coffee. That really made me feel good and almost as if I were there too! Now stay home and get some rest!!!
While I'd love to have the rain but I just don't think I could stand the heat. The heat we've been having has been oppressive enough for me. I just can't take the heat anymore. Hormones. Or lack of hormones! How long of a drive was it???
