Our Trip to Show Low…

This last weekend we took some time and went up to Show Low to see some friends and just hang out and enjoy the mountain air. It was a very nice, and relaxing trip. Much needed. Along the way, I decided to take some pics, and share with everyone. :) (Bet yer all just so excited!) The first pic there, is of us in the car waiting at the doggie spa to drop off Kahlua. You see, we were under the impression that it opened at 9am, so we made plans to get out of town at 9am… Didn’t open until 10am…

The next pic is our Wonderdog, Kahlua being a good girl waiting for the doggie spa. :)

The next pic here, is a perfect example of why we needed to get out of the city. This is the typical mornic behavior you see day to day when the temperature is 157 million degrees in the shade. People in this town routinely stop inside the intersection and make traffic go around them… Lasltly is a picture of Heidi in our favorite mountain town. We’re happy at this point and have forgotten the troubles of shitsville. Oh, and we met a strange creature at the hotel. Click here to see this thing. I think it was a centipede, but who knows… Heidi thought it was cute. :)

I’ve inlcuded some more pics in the extended entry. If you are a motorcycle rider, you will appreciate them. I took them specifically for a friend of mine in DC who just bought a new bike. Since he frustrated me by telling the world about his new bike (you see, I don’t have a bike anymore), I thought I’d return the favor and remind him of Salt River Canyon — where he cannot ride said bike (at least not with out a long trip). ;)
