LOCATION: Phoenix, Arizona
WEATHER: Every day seems the same....highs in low 70s, lots of sun, cool at night. Perfection!
We took off to climb the iconic Camelback Mountain. We tried to find the easier trail that George had climbed a few years ago when he accompanied me one time on a work trip, but couldn't find it. Instead, we found a different trail. The hike was categorized as "extremely difficult". Uh-oh. I wasn't too excited, but we decided to try it.
The welcome informational sign said the hike is slightly higher than climbing the 103 stories of the Empire State Building, uh-oh.
The trail was busy with all kinds of people, young, old, fit and not-so-fit. I enjoyed gawking at the beautiful mansions next to the mountain, seemingly chiseled into the rocks.
Here we go......
Actually, we didn't go all the way, turning around mid-way. That was enough. The panoramic view of the valley was beautiful.
All tuckered out, we found a cool brewpub for lunch, called O.H.S.O... Outrageous Homebrewerrs Social Outpost.
Back at the RV park, we lounged around the swimming pool.
DINNER: Scallops in a cheese sauce. I added some leftover spinach and cannellini, and served over polenta, aka grits.
