Salt River Canyon
This afternoon Jan and I drove down through Salt River Canyon, our favorite way, due to many reasons, including there are more bathroom stalls in Globe than in Payson.
But there are a few drawbacks, mostly stupid blankety blankety A-- Drivers.
If you fall in any of these categories, please take note.
IF YOU ARE PULLING A TRAILER, GO THROUGH PAYSON,
IF YOU ARE AFRAID OF CURVES, GO THROUGH PAYSON,
IF YOU ARE ONLY GOING 15 MPH, GO THROUGH PAYSON.
IF YOU CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR GAS PEDAL AND YOUR BRAKE, GO THROUGH PAYSON.
IF YOU INSIST ON SPEEDING UP IN THE PASSING ZONE AND NOT LET ANYONE PASS YOU, GO THROUGH PAYSON.
IF YOU CANNOT LOOK OUT YOUR REARVIEW MIRROR AND SEE THE TWENTY-PLUS CARS BEHIND YOU AND REFUSE TO PULL OVER, GO THROUGH PAYSON.
IF YOU ARE DRIVING THROUGH ARIZONA FOR THE FIRST TIME, GO THROUGH PAYSON.
Salt River Canyon is not for the faint of heart. Only the brave and fearless drive this highway.
Here is another suggestion, just stay home if you are not capable of driving the speed limit.
Otherwise it was a most pleasant trip. A couple of good rainstorms on Saturday and Sunday. The mountain is beautiful. Really green and lots of flowers already blooming. This morning it was 36 degrees. Thank goodness for propane lanterns that warm up our trailers.
Our many thanks to Uncle Cecil and Aunt Millie's family for allowing us to use this beautiful place to rest and enjoy the cooling breezes. It is our heaven on earth.

New music too! You forgot this one: If you want to pass on a double yellow line, go through Payson.
I'm glad we went and glad you drove home.
