A Great Treat

Mary and Kate and Peggy were here. They arrived this past Saturday and left on Monday morning (KATE), Wednesday morning and evening (Mary, then Peg) We had an early birthday celebration for me. It was so great to have them here we had a good time and did somethings that Peg had never done or seen before. One of the highlights for Peg and scary parts for Mary was a trip along the Apache Trail which is only partially paved, rather narrow and goes along the Salt River and its three lakes ending up at Roosevelt Dam and lake where you can circle back home on normal paved highway. See some pictures below of the trip.


Here we see Peg picking prickly pear cactus pears, on US Forest land in the Tonto National Forest, however we were fine as no Rangers came along.




We were on the second floor of a building built between 1100 and 1250 AD. Mary, & Chris chose not to enter, but it was much cooler inside and very interesting if for no other reason than the age of the structure. This was at the Besh Ba Gowah Indian Ruins in Globe Arizona.



This is Mary & Kate as they toured the ancient grounds.



This is Peg as she was leaving the building. Up and Down was by ladder, no stairs and the ladders we held together by rope woven from local materials. Those Indians did a great job building.




This is Chris as she toured the site.
