Happy New Year!
Here's to 2016...and a wish that 2017 be a good year to all!

It has been a cool and wet week down here.  Last night it rained all night.  There is water standing everywhere, but they tell me that means we will have a great spring flower season!!! 

Two more couples arrived this week.  Both have been here before but had taken a year or two off.  The last couple of days Al and I have been working with one couple reacquainting them with things.  The park is full for New Years, maybe one or two spots left.  Last night we were booked! 

On Thursday some friends we worked with in 2015 at Custer State Park showed up for a visit.  They are from Illinois and will be spending a Month and a half retracing some of our steps exploring Arizona last year at this time.  It was fun to see Bill and Ginny again, and we can't wait to hear their experiences and impressions.  They were surprised to see how pretty this park is with the lake and waterfowl. 

This week we went exploring by taking a drive up to the Salt River Canyon.  This area is just north of Globe.  The canyon was very pretty.  Wonderful colors in the rock.  The drive leads you up into the mountains and would eventually take you to Show Low, AZ through the national forest.  But we were running out of time, always the case, ahem....so one of these days we will head back that way.  There is more to see in Globe too, so we will definitely be back.  Here are some pictures of the canyon and Salt River.

 It was a semi cloudy day...but we will definitely be back up there.  There are ancient indian cliff dwellings and villages to go back to see.

Again, Happy New Year to everyone!
