Another gorgeous day in the Sonoran Desert, and what better way to spend an hour or so than picking up a few geocaches. We’re  now at 666 – OMG – the Number of the Beast! All is lost! Better get out and find at least one more to avoid catastrophic events.

My daughter Gillian and I along with our new dog, Fergie, took a road trip out to Wickenbug, northwest of Phoenix, up to the mountain top hamlet of Yarnell, and on to Prescott. It was an absolutely gorgeous day for driving and caching. Along the way we ate lunch at Ranch House Restaurant in Yarnell. A return trip is in order.

Most people don’t know this, but there is a thriving wine industry in Arizona. Most of it is centered down in the southern part of the state near Sonoita, but today we went to a few vineyards in the north central area around Page Springs. Along the way, we picked up a few caches, and of course, a few bottles of wine. The weather was perfect, the leaves on the trees were yellow and orange, and a splendid time was had by all.

…and about time. Running some errands and picked up another 3 quickies.
