Day 12

Day 12

January 29, 2015

Miles: 1883

It's been 12 days?!? Holy crap! Ugh!! 

So quick question:  Have I always been this clumsy?!?? I totally fell this evening and busted my knee. It is stinging but I'm trying to be tough.

It doesn't help that I totally slipped in mud and got that mud all over my light grey sweats.....

 And I totally walked into a room full of international airmen drinking and enjoying each other's company.  Bloody hell!! And my knee stings! Ugh!!!

So today we drove out to the Painted Mountains and the Petroglyphs site.  It was interesting.  The road is "primitive" so it gives you a feel like you are stepping back into history.  We could see all the markings made centuries ago.  It was kind of surreal to look at history in such a living way.  I realize they are just rocks, but you have to remember ancient hands touched those rocks and left a permanent mark on them.  A mark I can still see to this day.  It's just engaging in a whole new way.

I just find the art an embodiment of our past, ya know?  Maybe I'm silly.

Well speaking of silly, we found the ultimate dog running area (where I won't get shouted at or a gun drawn on me.. Sheesh!).  It's kinda fun watching the dogs run at full speed with no fences to stop them.  Lil is learning about local wildlife.  

I'm afraid she'll learn the hard way to keep her nose outta everyone else's business....

Too funny!!

So stoked about the super bowl this weekend.  It should be a blast!! Hopefully I'll find some trouble in Phoenix on Sunday.

I have an early drive tomorrow.  We are doing the old west bit tomorrow.  Can't wait to see all the history in southern Arizona!

Sleep sweet and angels on your pillows!!

I miss you, a whole lot!

I love you, even when I don't like you.

Goodnight!
