Not really worth a new thread but I did manage to play in the mud a bit Sunday after church. Yellowsub and Silversides rode along. Did the Nissan version of Table Mesa. Hit some mud, took the tour, viewed the desert in the sunsetting light.
Nice quick trip

Verde River Fishin'
The other night Michael and I went night fishing off the Verde River. We didn't have a whole lot of luck, but we did catch two little catfish. We're gonna go out again when it's a little warmer at night and catch a few monsters!

I was asked out shooting today for bonding purposes.
Thanks again Bob for the 22. Pretty straight far out w/o a scope


Put some coffee cans horizontally on a sigh h-frame and you've got an instant spinner target.
We'll have to have a larger group later
Today only had the scoped 7mm rifle, 22 long, 9mm, 40, and a 12.

After being couped up in the house way too long, last week I decided to get out of the house and hike. I headed to Squaw Peak, since it was close to home and had a variety of trails to offer. Last Friday, I hiked Freedom trail (3.7mi) which was a nice three hour hike, including flower pics & lunch. About 2/3 of the way in, while taking a pic, I noticed this in the distance:

I knew I wanted to go back so I could 'splore this little building, so today, I headed to the trail that got me there, which was Perl Charles Memorial Hike (4.8mi). It was about the same difficulty as Freedom, but seemed longer than what was marked. I liked Freedom better, simply because it was a little shorter and also there was no noise pollution from the 51.

Cool you found it. That's what I pictured it looking like per Google Earth aerial photo.
