Monday, March 6, 2023

The day AFTER we got home last year from snowbirding down here in Arizona, I found: The Thunder Mesa Railroad on YouTube.  The remarkable part is that this studio in in Jerome, four miles up the hill from where we stay.  And it is open to the public on the first Saturday of the Month. […]

Grandson ‘Stache went on a school ski trip!  It was the day before King’s Hill got a three foot dump of snow… The Dailylife Daughter #1 got these screen shots of him and his friend from the King’s Hill Webcam.  They seem to have had a great time! (Photos by DD#1) ~Curtis in /-\rizon/-\!    […]

Day 047!

Wednesday, February 15, 2023

It was windy, cold and rainy last night.  That meant classic views in Sedona!  So we took a late afternoon trip after replenishing our drinking water and propane. (All panoramas except the fifth photo are from single photos.  #5 is from two photos taken while in motion!) Yes, the white specks are snow… Heading towards […]

Day 2023022!

Sunday, January 22, 2023

(This Project is in honor of Friend Robyn’s Birthday.  Why?  Who knows: it is the InterWeb, just go with it!) I did a project today.  I installed a new power strip.  Not just any power strip, but a pop up power strip! The Dailylife Wife had seen one of these in an Airstream Trailer video.  […]

Day 20230107!

Wednesday, January 18, 2023

We took a trip up through Sedona to see the snow on the rocks.  Starting with breakfast at Annie’s in Cottonwood. From downtown Old Sedona. These two panoramas are based on the same two photos merged, but are cropped differently.  This is the Back O’ Beyond Road.  It leads to a view of Cathedral Rock […]

Day 2023015!

Sunday, January 15, 2023

Kind of dull yesterday and rainy today…but I did spy something across the river… Yup!  There might even be two of them! But just what is it? It is the Verde Canyon Railroad! I road this one several years.  It is a nice ride.  Mostly in a canyon, but there is a tunnel! She was […]

Day 202305 – A short Day! And Post! At least compared to yesterday’s three…

Thursday, January 5, 2023

We got off about 9am heading East towards Flagstaff on I-40.  This is one of the roughest roads I have ever driven on that was considered to be paved! But the road stayed bare of snow and ice…just truck after truck after truck… I had to speed up a bit to keep from being a […]

Day 2023004…Part 3…Feed Me!

Wednesday, January 4, 2023

(Photos by the Dailylife Wife and me!) Last year late in our stay the Dailylife Wife heard about Oatman and wanted to go see it. https://www.amusingplanet.com/2017/03/the-wild-burros-of-oatman-arizona.html It was too late and too far for a quick trip last year, but I recalled it was somewhere around Kingman, or at least a lot closer than to […]
