Random travel photos

While I work on a long (perhaps too long) race report, here are some photos from our travels at the beginning of last summer.  It's going to take a while to catch up - so I better get started!

Kip came with us from Texas to visit Mom in Vermont.  The bush in her front yard had some gorgeous flowers:


A howling wolf we visited during a run around nearby neighborhoods - thanks for the fun company, Kip!


Back in Tucson briefly, where I found a cool (maybe the coolest) mural during a long run:


Our newest Trader Joe's opened just in time for us to visit in June, yay!  Finally a TJ's that isn't as far away from where we live:


John and I hauled our butts up Pusch Peak for some solid climbing training.  Admiring a century plant that has flowered in yellow:


Hiking buddies:


These notes made us laugh:


Top of the world - or at least, top of this lower part of the ridge:


A flowering saguaro in our park:


We squeezed in one last dinner with some Tucson friends and they (for some reason) let us play with their new kid.  He has apparently learned how to look at the camera better than we have:


A new EV fast charging location not far north of Tucson, and more keep opening all the time, yay!  Also, it's summer move-out day with Howie in tow:


Running in a park while charging at a nearby Circle K, admiring local fauna:


John found this, we think at a Goodwill in Flagstaff, funny timing since we were just there:


Aspens on Elden:


And ponderosas to make me smile!


More flowering cactii:


View up toward Elden, including a deep gash in the hillside:


And my favorite alligator juniper tree:


Just a quick post for now, thanks for reading!
