Spectacular Arizona Sunsets

I've been lazy this past week and just soaking up the sun and enjoying the swimming pool. We are finally feeling rested after the long drive down. We have only been out in the desert with the ATV once as it is just too darn hot yet and the rattlesnakes are still out and about. We have seen one so far and the tracks in the sand of another larger one so we have to be careful. It is supposed to start cooling off next week so we'll be able to do more ATVing then. The nightly sunsets have been spectacular so thought I would post a few pictures to prove it.

Sunset on Superstition Mountains

Sunset over the Sonora Dessert

Sunset over the Resort

An everyday Sunset 
What is remarkable is we get these sunsets every night. The locals are so used to them, they don't even notice any more! We went garage sailing this Friday and Saturday. What fun!! A high end community just a couple of miles from our park had a community wide sale this weekend so we didn't have to go far. Got some good deals and spent very little. If you know Doug - you'd be impressed! He got some great heavy duty plastic shelving units free!! (he has put them up in our ATV trailer to store items over the winter) and he got 2 six foot long pieces of angle iron for 25 cents. He used them to make a holder for the solar panel on the roof of the utility trailer. I got some great Christmas outdoor ornaments for a grand total of $5.00.
I like to spend a few hours a day with a good book and it is so easy to do when the temperature is 90 degrees F.

Sharon with a good book!
We are looking forward to my brother Brian and his wife Cathy visiting us next Saturday. More pictures after their visit
