On our roadtrip, we stayed in Thatcher for a day or so with Wes and Brittany. We had fun visiting with them and our kids loved visiting and playing with their kids. Then we took off to go camping on Mount Graham. We drove to the top of the mountain. It was so beautiful up there! We went up at the beginning of the week, so no one else was up there!
Ben took the boys shooting and we had a fun lunch. But the closer it got to the evening, the colder it got! Pretty soon all the kids were in the van just to keep warm with blankets. It really wouldn't have been so bad, but it was a "no burn" weekend. Ben and I discussed what we should do because it wasn't even dark yet. So Ben, being the A/C guy that he is and never leaves home without his tools, took out his thermometer. It was in the high 30's! So no wonder why we were so cold! That was too cold, especially with a baby! So we took down the tents and loaded up everything as quick as we could before the sun went down. We barely made it!
We had to change plans and quick! This is probably why Ben and I don't plan very often, it's because the plans don't go as planned! This was definitely one of those times. No one could have predicted what would come next...but that is for another day. (How's that for a cliffhanger!)
