Show Low, Arizona, My new place.



What chaos a move can be! Who knew you had so much stuff?And what a process getting it from one place to the next! I started loading the truck on July 11th and the next afternoon I drove it and all my stuff out of Maricopa and up to Show Low, AZ. I got to my new place about 7 something, exhausted and not looking forward to the unloading of the next day! I survived it and have been here almost three weeks now! The new place is big enough and the garage or shop is even big enough for my inspirations of what a shop should be! 30 X 30 feet will do nicely! The property has few neighbors and is most peaceful almost all the time. We do get monsoon storms almost every evening so far and the temp's are very pleasant! The critters are a little different here. Ground squirrels and chipmunks mostly, but we see rabbits daily, hummingbirds in quantity and the occasional deer or two. We have seen Elk but not yet at our house. Oh and the other day I caught a baby Horned lizard and a baby Tarantula! The latest critter was last night. On my way over to a friends for dinner I almost ran over a full sized Tarantula crossing the road! I backed up and took a couple of pic's of the very large spider, then went on to dinner with  my new friends! A lovely evening for sure!
