Let's see...we passed ghost towns and the Burro Inn, we changed time zones at Hoover Dam and checked progress on the new bypass highway they are constructing over the Colorado.
Kharma barked at the homeless backpacker in Kingman while she guarded her lunch. Arizona provided lots of rain, as usual. We talked of a possible petrified wood hunt on the way home, since my sweetie had great success in this area when he was young. Note to self: internet search on the area to see where to hunt.
Evening found us pulling into Pierre's driveway for a hearty salmon dinner in the Land of Enchantment. I have to admit that I'm more enchanted every time I come.
The front yard is our project this time and we've spent quite a bit of time already at the nurseries and home improvement centers. That's becoming a tradition! It's so wonderful to see flowers!!! Spring here is as fun as spring in the Basin and Range.
We've acquired chilopsis, chitalpa, lilac, forsythia, smoke tree, silk tree, agave, artemesia and trumpet vine so far. We are set to dig holes and move rocks the easy way--Deni's dad is gonna bring his Bobcat by for us to play with this week. Pierre is jumping up and down inside at the prospect of playing with a new toy!
Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it's off to play I go...
