Rabbi comes to Arizona

9/11/2011.  Sunset from our back yard in Kingman  
Pat used my mother's biscuit recipe tonight, except she make one big one!  Went good with eggs, bacon, a nice salad, and some good Fig preserves.  First attempt using the new gas oven.  It turned out perfect!
Tommy Willcockson (Rabbi) from North Carolina was in Phoenix on business this weekend.

Lanny, (biglefti) Rabbi, Jennifer, Tony D. We ate at Arriba's Mexican. Excellent food. During dinner, there was a strong thunder storm go through. Blew down a couple trees in the parking lot! The company was perfect, sure wish we would have had a better turn out, but it was short notice, and others had plans. Beside, the weather wasn't good for riding.

The storm was so hard, we could feel rain drops inside the restaurant. This was taken out a window.

The entertainment could't have been better!

This made me sad. There use to be a nice little store here, with a garage and towing service. Between Wickenburg and Wikiup on Hwy 93. I've stopped here many times in the past for a cold drink and a visit with the old man that ran the store. There was a couple of old mobile homes here, one for the owner, the other for his boys family that ran the garage. It's all gone. He kept birds, snakes, and other animals here for the tourists to see.

A beautiful Saguaro in Wikiup.

This reminds me of Steve Gunn. When we were on the way to Tucson a few years ago, I took a picture of him sniffing this very cactus. It still looks about the same. I'm sure Steve looks a little different :-)

This gentleman has greeted a lot of folks to the Trading Post

Love the Boots!

The store if full of this kind of stuff, I couldn't resist taking a few pictures

More triinkets
