Day 26028!

Friday, January 30, 2026

How to hide your beer. We got the Internet back in the afternoon?  It is…not any better than it was before, but at least it is now! ~Curtis in Arizona! {!-{>

Day 26023!

Friday, January 23, 2026

We ran up the hill to Flagstaff yesterday for lunch.  We went to Smashburger*…errr…Freddy’s Frozen Custard and Steakburger…they HAVE Smash Burgers…or at least Smash Burger Tacos…  It was a pretty good lunch, even though I am not a big fan of those skinny shoestring fries.  The shake, as seen here yesterday, was excellent!  There is […]

Day 26020!

Tuesday, January 20, 2026

The Dailylife Wife and I went out to lunch at one of our favorite places: Calavera.  Fine Mexican cuisine, with skeletons! I had the Lunch #3, enchilada and burrito, shredded beef.  And there was a LOT of shredded beef! The Dailylife Wife decided to be chill about eating out, and had a non-spicy Taco Salad, […]

Day 26019!

Monday, January 19, 2026

I dislike traffic circles.  Roundabouts.  Even rotaries.  Too many people guessing. So when I saw this question mark announcing one today, it seemed to be the perfect sign.  Heading towards downtown Clarkdale. ~Curtis in Arizona, waiting on possible Northern Lights! {!-{>

Day 26018!

Sunday, January 18, 2026

I got up early today to see the Sunrise.  This is looking East near Tuzigoot NM.  (Click on the panoramas a couple of times to see larger!) Turning around here is Clarkdale. On the way North up on AZ89A is the Immaculate Conception Catholic Parish, with the red rocks near Sedona beyond it. This is […]

Day 26005!

Tuesday, January 6, 2026

A reminder of the first year we came down here… I did take my first ride.  It was about four miles roundtrip to Tuzigoot Nat’l Monument (five miles by the bike’s dash but it is off from my iPhone’s GPS a bit).  I got a lock to “leash” it to the pet leash loops on […]

Day (2025) 2!

Saturday, December 27, 2025

This is a photo my darlin’ wife found, taken by me just shy of 41 years ago.  Today is our 41st anniversary, and this was three or four days later than the wedding on our Honeymoon in Lucerne, Switzerland. I believe it is on the Kappellbruke, or Chapel Bridge.  There was a really long one […]

Day 243

Thursday, September 14, 2023

“Free at last; free at last!” Freedom in America: Fall colors, the American Flag, and Coffee, as seen from the Starbuck’s Drive-Thru (and my truck), with an appropriate sign in the middle.  This was my first time driving in over a month!  And it almost didn’t happen.  All of the short street-to-driveway and driveway-to-street jaunts, […]
