The pictures that we are using...only for the blog sake...in no way are we proclaiming them to be ours.

 Superstition mountain..wow is this ever pretty...I see lots of photo opportunities here.


Superstition Mountain (YavapaiWikchsawa) is located immediately east of the Phoenix metropolitan area in Arizona. It anchors the west end of theSuperstition Wilderness. Although its precise origin is debated by geologists, many believe that the mountain was formed from volcanic activity as far back as 25 million years ago. The ash and basalt composed mountain was eroded by the elements to give it the unique form it has today,[3] creating the prominent landmark and popular recreation destination in the region.
The mountain, located near Apache Junction and Gold CanyonArizona, is easily accessible from U.S. Route 60 and State Route 88. It is a popular three season (fall, winter, spring) hiking area. Afternoon temperatures from June to September are usually in the range of 100 to 115°F near the mountain. Day hikers often frequent the mountain during cooler months. TheLost Dutchman State Park is located on the western side of the mountain and includes hiking trails to notable formations such as the Praying Hands and the Flatiron.[4] The Peralta Trail, on the southern side of the mountain, traverses Fremont Saddle and descends into the wilderness to the east of the mountain.

Bob and I are doing wonderful and will be together very soon!
