We're over in Arizona for the weekend. Hubby decided WE needed to get out of time (hey, I'm just along for the ride!)...Here are some pics so far~~I also discovered that the Superstition Mountains are much more vast than I ever imagined! We arrived there mid-day, so we drove all the way out beyond Canyon Lake, past Tortilla Flats, until the paved road ended. There, a sign said "Unpaved road 22 miles", so we turned around. I also discovered that I need to drink more water. I got dehydrated by late afternoon. My vision was blurry and I was too tired to eat dinner last night (you KNOW I'm dehydrated when I don't want to eat!!!)...so I will take a water bottle with me today and DRINK IT! And, yesterday, it was 100 degrees here. I should know better...I'm too tired to go for a morning walk this morning, that's how bad I feel! As a desert dweller, I SHOULD know better...I just wasn't thinking about my water intake and, as you know, that can be deadly.

I love Tortilla Flats. Such a cool drive. You should have done the 22 miles of unpaved, it's super fun! But do be careful and drink lots of water. I know I've been getting dehydrated too. Happens quick.
