Broken Foot Guy on I-10 East

My son and I saw this character on our way out of Phoenix.
I wondered what his story would be. And I liked his method of carrying his crutches.
I admire his tenacity to ride. Ride safe broken foot guy.

The Geocache That Got Away (movie)

My favorite hiking buddies & the geocache that got away

My son had a three day weekend. When we weren't riding the 4-wheeler/dirt bike, we decided to do some hiking at nearby Westwing Mountain and search for one of several geocaches. Unfortunately, this one got away. The hiking was great, my son and my dog are awesome to hike with. As much as I pleaded, my son refused to carry me in the 100 degree heat. We hiked about 3 miles and the elevation we hiked to was about 1,900 feet (home is about 1140 feet).
