My husband's Disneyland

We have a Bass Pro Shop in Mesa, and it's a pretty cool place to go if you like hunting and fishing - plus they have a decent restaurant.

I just noticed that my pic from yesterday didn't load - hmmmm, I guess I'll get to use that one again

A flower for you!


I've been TAGGED by Slinger of the Twin Cities Daily Photo! I've been asked to list eight random things about myself that you do not know and in turn, tag eight others to do the same. Here goes:
1. I was the editor of my high school newspaper in my senior year
2. My husband and I (and kids) did our first home exchange this summer with a woman in Scotland
3. I don't think I'll let my grey hair win, no matter how old I am
4. My first job was at a cinnamon roll restaurant in the mall, and I gained quite a few pounds while there
5. The last book I read was Eat, Pray, Love
6. As I was writing this, our upstairs toilet overflowed
7. I'm not very good at gardening
8. My first car was a 1971 Honda Civic, that I bought for $500

I am tagging these 8 City Daily Photo bloggers (skip if you've already been tagged):

1. Durban, South Africa

2. Waldo Oiseau at Kansas City Daily Photo

3. Bill at Delta, Colorado Daily Photo

4. Hoodphotography at Portland, Oregon Daily Photo

5. Dustin at Flagstaff, Arizona Daily Photo

6. Oslo, Norway Daily Photo

7. Villigen, Switzerland Daily Photo

8. Chris and Deb at Minneapolis Daily Photo

These are the rules:1. Link to your tagger and post these rules.

2. List eight (8) random facts about yourself.

3. Tag eight people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).

4. Let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving them a comment on their blogs.

Four Peaks

The mountain range in the distance is called Four Peaks, for obvious reasons; it's on the northeastern end of the Phoenix metro area, and you can drive up into them for some interesting off-roading
