It was delightful soaking last night. I started out in the lobster pot, then once thoroughly warmed to the core <g> I spent the next hour in the pond. There was wind - but that also meant no mosquitos!
It was overcast all morning, but the rain held off so the soaking was perfect. I met a couple from Sedona, Cherita (a massage therapist and yoga instructor) and john, and we exchanged info.
Late morning I showered and we packed up to head to Ouray to meet up with Dwain. The rain (only sprinkles at this point) did hold off long enough for us to organize, pack up and hitch the trailer back up. After a too-short stop in the book store (not enough time for either of us) we met Dwain for a nice lunch on the upstairs outdoor balcony at the Ouray Brewery. I had a grilled avocado salad with shrimp roumalade. Scrumptious! Then (of course) we stopped in at a rock shop Dwain recommended - and where the owner turned out to be from Apache Junction and owns a mine Tom evaluated years ago. He's interested in having Tom take a look at it again.
Dwain convinced Tom he could get the trailer up the mountain, so we followed him home. I remember that road from 6 summers ago, but Tom wasn't with us on that trip. He couldn't believe we just kept climbing and climbing that NARROW steep S-curved road. And kept climbing. And still kept climbing. But the view is spectacular; spent the afternoon on the deck taking it all in, at around 8400'.
