Low Country Boil

This may be the fourth(?) annual Low Country Boil enjoyed by participants in DhBoss (Davis Hollow Boat Owners Sailing Society).  I'm confident it is my third and it is always a terrific meal with wonderful friends who happen to enjoy sailing.  Davis Hollow is where the marina at Moraine State Park, Butler, PA is located.

Deck Build in AZ

Sunset from Rob & Biz's deck in Chino Valley
Summer temps in southern Arizona are regularly in triple digits and evening temperatures aren't much better, staying in the high 80s and low 90s overnight.  Circumstances kept Jada in Tucson much longer than she originally intended so when my July trip was upon us, we decided that it was better to stay north of Prescott, AZ than anywhere south or lower elevations.  As it turns out my college buddy, Rob could use some help rebuilding his deck so Jada and I found ourselves as houseguests and laborers in Chino Valley, AZ.  While daytime highs crept above 100F, they dropped into the low sixties and fifties overnight with comfortable temps for several hours in the morning.

It is fun capturing the different animals
on each plane I fly.

Dinner with Rob & Biz.

Love the Arizona sunsets!



Jada finally got her rig back so she is heading to Colorado
from Chino Valley.  Cooler and higher, she plans to 
enjoy the Rocky Mountains in Colorado.




"Happy," is Rob & Biz's wonderfully
friendly dog.  Happy and Jada are
best buddies!


Those brown spots are where the sun
tanned Murph's back through his holey
work T-shirt.
