Another Trip To The Mountains

Cathy and I found our way up to Alpine, Arizona for the 4th year in a row this summer. We weren't as photo-happy as in years past, but took a few pics you may enjoy. Cathy was there for the first two weeks with Angel, alone , enjoying the everyone-needs-a-little-time-away game. I came up for the 2nd two weeks and brought my own special set of needs for her to deal with. Sorry Cathy. Some rememberances and then the pics (remember, you can click any of these pics for the full size). Cold water comes from the taps (if you're in Phoenix this time of year, you know what I mean!). Elk, Horses, Skunks, birds-of-color, aspen, rain, napping when it rains, mountain hikes, lots of down-time, did I mention naps? We found a new spot this year, Escudilla Mountain. Oh my, what took us so long? A 3 mile hike to the top. Aspens, altitude, the works: And then, a few more of our favorite loves, the horses Honey and Papoos! There's nothing better than some horse-soul-love every day! We again, came back to Phoenix so very thankful for our chance to enjoy some mountain time together with each other, Angel and long-rainy-afternoon-naps!
