Pre-flight libations.  

Note the remaining time.  And this was about 6 hours into downloading Argo.  We still haven’t watched it.

First stop in Arizona.  Naturally.

Our rental car was a mini van.  Joey is now convinced that this will be his next car.

Saturday night dinner.  Mushroom pizza, salad with a million croutons and beer.

World Baseball Classic.  Italy vs. USA.  ‘Merica pulled out the win!

Joey and his family take pickleball very seriously.

Rockies Spring Training game with my friend and Arizona resident Zach.  The Rockies did not even care that it was my first Spring Training game and decided to lose. 

Hiking in the desert.  

See that rock in the very top right corner?  Yeah we climbed up there.

Literally the happiest I’ve ever seen Joey look.

Green Chili Chicken Burgers on the grill for Joey’s brother, cousin and grandparents.  Burgers were a hit, but we may or may not have burnt those brawts to a crisp.  Oops.

Realized the Nuggets were also in town and paid $45 each to sit in the nosebleeds.  Fun!

Intense Shuffleboard tournament.  I can’t wait to be retired. 

First In-N-Out burger (I only got a chocolate shake on our first trip there).  Complete with fries and a Coke.  I was underwhelmed by the food but overjoyed at how much cleaner/more professional it was than any other fast food place I’ve ever been to.

Till next time, AZ!
