Whoops!  I mispelled harmony.  Dah, what a way to start the New Year.

Canyon Lake

Today we took a ride past the Superstitions mountains, on the Apache Trail up to Canyon Lake, in the Tonto National Forest and then on to Tortilla Flat's for a late lunch.  The scenic ride was wonderful, although being a flatlander, the road was high and very curvy.  Some areas were only 15mph and mostly no guardrails on these narrow roads full of hairpin curves.

We saw so many sagauro cactus, they were like little solders marching up the mountains. 

All I cound think of was Robert Louis Stevenson's poem; The Land of Counterpane.

Cactus around our park

Bob and I volunteer to work at the Saturday morning breakfast.  It's a lot of fun, but we must get up at  between 4 and 4:30 to be there by 6:15.  We served over 260 this morning, a rather slow day.  A lot of folks have gone home for the holidays or have family visiting them. It's not a bad deal, $2 for pancakes, french toast, saugage, eggs and coffee.  As much as you want.  This price includes entertainment too!  Such a deal. 

Merry Christmas

Happy Birthday Jesus

Today is  a difficult time for a lot of  folks, being away from family and friends.  For those in the service, hospitals, rest homes, and any other reasons they are not connected, I wish you better times .  Remember to count your blessing as we celebrate the birth of the Christ child.   Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: I bring you good tidings of great joy~For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

Luke 2:10-11

 

Happy Holidays

HAPPY HOLIDAYS! WISHING YOU ALL A JOYOUS HOLIDAY AND A SAFE AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!

Lets remember what Christmas is about and that is the birth of Jesus.  Be careful if you are on the roads and return home safe

Hope Santa fills all your stocking's to overflow.
