mid Sept. update.

Good afternoon. 

I believe it's past time for another post. 

So here goes....

We went back to Flagstaff the first week of September. Enjoyed it so much the first time, so had to go back. The weather was very cool. Highs only around 70, but it felt good compared to the heat of Vegas.

We stayed at the same hotel, the Residence Inn, which is right on the edge of downtown. Great room, and a great location. We ate out every day again, and this is what you get at most restaurants, instead of a menu....

These are attached to the middle of the table, and you scan it with your Smart phone to get the menu. One less thing to touch. Works real well too. One day, we ate at altitudes, home of the shot train.

It's a ski with holes drilled so far apart, and shot glasses inserted in the holes. You line up and supposedly all drink the shots at once. The ladies at this table did pretty good.

And of course, Route 66 goes through Flagstaff....

And here's some pics of my back yard....

The pink and blue Mexican Petunia's are blooming very well this year.

My little cactus a neighbor gave me is blooming again.

The yard is finally starting to look more established. Now if I can just quit tearing out and replanting stuff. What a learning curve I've gone through!   :-)

Now it's mid September, and our great weather is finally here. Highs in the 90's and low's in the 70's. Spring and fall is the best here!
