When we originally planned this trip, we were scheduled to be gone for 10 months. For various reasons we shortened that time to 3 months which had two significant repercussions. The first is that we had to truncate 10 months of gas costs into 3 months. Ouch! The second is that we are in the southwest during the hottest month of the year. Double ouch!
I don't know why I'm being such a baby - it was only 112 degrees out yesterday!
Still, I wasn't expecting the summer dessert to be as pretty as it is. Truly, there are some beautiful sites here in Arizona.
We didn't realize that we would be in the southwest during monsoon season, with its nightly storms and clouds. There's been no rain yet, but the evening skies have been brilliant.
We are definitely missing our perfect Maine summer weather, and we may even enviously look back on these days during the coming winter months. But probably not!
