Welcome to Scottsdale. This is the ‘arty’ district of Phoenix and houses dozens of galleries and exclusive stores selling pottery, paintings and jewellery. The photo here is Old Town which has plenty of bars and restaurants serving great food from Creole to Mexican. As the temperature has gone up a notch to 105F it’s a good idea to take refuge in the shade of most bars that conveniently supply a constant spray of fine mist which cools the air and, occasionally, you. The planned trip to Tombstone had to be cancelled as a six hour round car journey was asking too much of an old fart who had over indulged the night before. In fairness the bar visited did cook an amazing bowl of Cajun pork, peppers, Monterey Jack cheese and chillies all washed down with very large Johnnie Walker black label. As well as all that the music was right up my street with a lot of seventies rock and blues 👍👍👍
Hi guys
I’m sensing a theme here…. not sure about these ‘friends’ your hanging out with – Mr Jack Daniels, Johnnie Walker – who will it be next Jim Beam , Colonel EHTaylor ?
Pace yourselves it’s only day 4.
Have fun
Hi just been catching up on the photo’s – the main deck on the Queen Mary would make a great skittles alley … yes / no !!! Don’t know who would drive each week !
It would Nikki but we’ve found a new sport to play. It’s called Shuffleboard and it’s like Shovehalfpenny but 40 foot longer and covered in sand. It’s awesome and I’m a natural although your husband had the temerity to beat me at pool!!
Sounds like another good day!
I’ve got to ask, How are you coping with those sort of temperature’s? Is it a case of staying in the shade of a local bar with an ice cold beer (or two )?
To be honest Steve, we make sure we wrap up warm with 2 vests and a good thick coat. Up to now it’s worked fine but we do get some strange looks.
Hi E . If that’s true you’ll both be coming back as thin as a rake .We won’t recognise you apart from your beards!Anyway carry on having a good time & think of us poor people who have got to go to work !
