Eve tasted cereal for the first time ever--here's her photo.
Last weekend we went camping. Karl planned our adventure. We drove on back roads from Cherry, AZ over Wood Chute mountain where we camped in the pine trees. The next morning we drove to Jerome. There we stopped at the ghost town which features a junk yard where everything is at least 50 years old. They had cabins, old Studebakers, rusty tools, and a working saw mill driven by a single piston gasoline engine. Karl and Cole loved it. The rest of us liked it too.
Then we looked at the rest of Jerome, which is touristy. We saw a glass blowing demonstration at an art studio. From there we drove north, played in the water at the Verde River, and camped in the junipers.
The next day we drove past White Horse Lake, went on a short hike, saw a beautiful overlook into Sycamore canyon, and took dirt roads to Sedona. After one more off-road trail, we headed home. It was a fun trip.
When we arrived home, the heat had increased another notch toward summer: now it is too hot to open our windows when we go to bed. We can still cool off the house in the morning. We are thankful for air conditioning.
