Off the Computer, on to the Motorcycle!

Last Saturday Sandy and I were joined by a good friend Rob, and Sandy's sister Tammy for a ride on the motorcycles out east of us toward Globe Arizona. The scenery changes that you will see on this short little trip are nothing short of astounding! We leave the low desert here in San Tan Valley (formerly known as a part of Queen Creek), climb a short pass over to Superior, AZ, then up another pass through spectacular red rock canyons and craggy peaks up to the Miami / Globe area, mining towns with cooler temperatures at a considerably higher elevation.


We stopped for lunch in a little Mexican restaurant (excellent food) in Globe, right beside an old west Tavern on the Main Street.



We continued on north of Globe past the Roosevelt Dam and Reservoir. We stopped there for a quick look around to see what this area has to offer.




We then continued on north, where we connected with Highway 87 south of Payson. We then headed back south to one of our favorite stops, Saguaro Lake, and enjoyed a pint of beer before carrying on home to San Tan Valley, through Apache Junction, AZ.
This week has been busy as well, with our good friends Brenda and Adrian coming to stay overnight on Tuesday, so we took the opportunity to have a belated Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner with the gang, and now it's back to work on the website today.

I just posted a new article about electrical wiring diagrams, and Sandy is working on getting some more videos up-loaded to the site.
