Weekend in the Mountains


I was away again this last weekend, this time up in Flagstaff Arizona among the tall pines and the fall colors on the aspens.


We weren't the only ones interested in these colorful trees, there were huge crowds up there.  The parking area for this aspen grove was completely full.  You are only seeing about a tenth of the cars.
We packed a lot of things into this weekend, we toured a historic home in Flagstaff and spent almost an entire day at Lowell Observatory seeing the telescope that discovered the planet Pluto.  And, then on the drive home we made two more stops to see Montezuma's Castle once again and to see what was happening at Arcosanti.  It was fun!
