We quickly got used to the dry heat, trail dust, cactus and desert creatures. We hiked most days in areas including South Mountain, Superstition Wilderness and Red Rock Wilderness. We also took the opportunity to explore historic cultural sights.
My sister, Julie, lives in Arizona and we were guests at her house when we weren't all on the road. Julie, our friend Sue and I planned each day's activities the night before and sometimes moments before...I love these kind of trips for the spontaneity and variety. They always turn out well as all of us are gung-ho about the next prospect for adventure. Many laughs, many stories..that is what great times are all about :))
