Taking the day off from posting. Enjoy this picture of The Damsel enjoying the view near our new home.
Retirement
The Other Road
We walked up the hill to our neighbor’s house to check on it (he’s out of town) a couple of days ago. While we were up there, I took a picture looking down at the next road over. A couple of saguaros, a mesquite tree with a wagon wheel and a cholla make nice landscape at the entrance of another neighbor’s house. Casandro Wash is in the background.

Roadrunner
We saw this roadrunner on our way back from taking the dogs to the park. It was about 500 feet down the road from our house. I got out of the truck to try and get a closer picture but the little guy ran down the road (what else would a roadrunner do?) into a thicket. Click on the image to enlarge.
One Year Ago Today
One year ago the house looked like this. Mouse over the image to see our home today.
Mountains Northeast of Town
We went to the gun show in town today. On the way to the community center, we passed a scenic overlook towards the northeast. In the foreground are the Hieroglyphic Mountains and the Bradshaw Mountains in the background. Another nice, clear 75° day in the Western Community of Wickenburg. Click on the image to enlarge.
All in a Year’s Progress
Here is a comparison of the appearance of our retirement home one year ago versus today. It is very gratifying to look back at where we were one year ago and compare it to Damsel’s dream retirement home of today. Click on each image to enlarge.
Mobile Mesquite
There is a mesquite tree between the RV entrance and the courtyard. I had the landscaping crew trim this tree a bit so I could have a place for wind chimes and mobiles. I got a sunburst mobile at Big Lots last week. I think it adds a little fall color to the yard. Click on the image to enlarge.
