Yesterday we were in no real rush to hit the road as the
next destination (Apache Junction - Arizona) which is east of Phoenix is a 2 hour drive to the
north. So we took our time getting ready to go and left about 11 o’clock.
The weather was nice with a high of about 22C. Last
night the temperature went down to 8 and there was a little rain.

| This highway barrier was for sound and wind protection for a RV resort on the other side. |

| This green pasture was beside the area in the next picture - water makes all the difference. |

During the drive there were areas the wind would p/u and in
the distance there looked to be a fog but it was the wind picking up the sand and
blowing it around and in one case we saw a small twister. I was hoping we didn’t
have to drive through a server storm as I hear you lose a lot of your visibility
plus I didn’t want the coach to be taking it in.

| Cathy didn't quite get the twister but it hit the small community on the left - hope no one had their laundry out! |
