Visiting Arizona

One of things Jan and I look forward to doing together is spending a week in Arizona sort of celebrating our anniversary. The weather is cooler with temps in the sixties but the senery is always bueatiful.Align Right

We attended a Baptist church Sunday morning in Chandler close to where we are staying. They had three morning services.



One of the fun activities while on our visit to Phoenix was attending a Ritchie Bros. heavy equipment auction. Since everything we buy while while we're here must fit in a suitcase on an airplane Jan didn't have to worry about me buying anything.
I was able to get a Phoenix Raceway pitpass while attending a race there. It was fun to watch up close and even talk to folks in the pit.

Jan and I drove to the southern Arizona border one day and walked into Old Mexico. I asked Hebron if we could take his picture. He sells leather goods to provide for his wife and five daughters. When we met him last year during a similar visit he told me stories of his families life in Mexico.



Yuma is always a favorite place to visit. It's part of the Imperial Valley just across the river from southern California and is an agricultural town raising all kinds of vegtables.
