Phoenix

 A couple of weeks since Kerry went home and about a week since Sue & Mark arrived. S & M are heading south tomorrow toward Tucson as there is quite a lot to see in that area, they will be back here in a couple of days and then head off on their adventure across the country to New York.

I bought a bike on market place to cycle some of the many excellent bike ways in Phoenix.

Back in the Waymo driverless car, cheap, comfortable & safe.

Leaving Pine Top & South to Tombstone

 The trip down from the mountains was enjoyable except when there was a 30 car pile up across the median strip on the freeway. We then headed south to Tombstone to the site of the gun fight at OK coral, which was re-enacted very professionally.

Tomorrow Kerry heads back to Australia, so I won't be doing much travelling or looking around as Yvonne & I have pretty much covered the western half of the country. As such there will be slim picins on this blog.

Someone near the storage area got a 747 fuselage and are using it as a giant shed.
