Sunday, March 1, 2026

 Thinking back to Saturday, oh yea, we met Nan, Monica & Logan, and Karen for lunch at Lucille's BBQ in Tempe. It was so nice to see them again and we caught up on the news of the family and had a great visit.

This morning, we took off and headed out on Hwy 88 toward Tortilla Flat.  Once we got to the Tonto National Forest, the road was well-paved but it became quite curvy.  It is well known for the scenery and I understand why - it is   absolutely gorgeous.  Both of us have been to Tortilla Flat before and it was really crowded, so we continued on past Canyon Lake and as far as the Fish Creek Outlook. Beyond that, the road is unpaved and has been under construction, so we weren't sure if it was open and we might have to turn back.

We got back to AJ, took naps, and went to Panda Express for dinner. It was a beautiful night, so we went and sat in the hot tub for a while. I don't remember when I was last in a hot tub and it really felt good.
