Our old bishop has a timeshare in Flagstaff they weren't using this week, so they let us use it. We took a few other couples with us since it sleeps eight. We drove up Sunday after church, had a nice home cooked meal and chilled the rest of the night. The sleeper sofas were awful, but luckily someone brought an air mattress.
The next morning some of us went for a run before we headed out for the day. Some friends of ours were competing in a rodeo up here so we went to watch him for awhile. It was very fascinating.
Then we rode the chairlift to the top of the mountain at snowbowl ski resort. It's right next to Mt. Humphries, the tallest peak in AZ. It took about 30 min each way. I had gotten a little car sick on the way up so I wasn't feeling so great for this activity. It was nice to get to just snuggle with Glade on the ski lift though.
We went home, cleaned up and went to dinner at Outback Steakhouse. Some wanted to check out the hot tub after dinner, only to find it was freezing cold. I'm glad I chose to stay home in my warm jammies. Melanie and I were very ready for bed so we turned in while the others played games.
Tuesday we spent the morning at Walnut Canyon hiking the Indian ruins. We came back to the condo for lunch, chitchat, and naps. We also went to the rec center to play a little mini golf and have some ice cream. Robin offered to make us dinner that night. We had stroganoff, rolls and corn on the cob. We all stayed up playing games, giggling and eating junk food. Good times!
The last morning we ran again, then some went to the lava tubes and we stayed back to chill at the condo. Glade and Jake played a little golf while Jenny and I watched. Lovely morning. Lunch in town at the best little hole in the wall Mexican place and then back to the condo for one more round of games. We had to get back for Whitley's graduation so we had to end our vacation a little early.
That was all the technical stuff about our 4 days, what can't be put into words are all the laughs, tears, inside jokes, insults.. did I mention laughs.. and most of all, love that was shared this week.
