Today it didn't look promising for the drive to Phoenix's Sky Harbor airport to get Sierra and Ansley on their trip back home...
... the wind was gusting and the clouds were filling the sky...
... and looking ominous to the max.
Matt and everyone else were ready for breakfast...
... so we drove to the Country House Family Restaurant for some chow...
... and the girls were in a great mood waiting for the food.
After dropping Sharyn back at the house, Matt bundled up for the drive...
... and as soon as we left Sierra Vista we ran into snow and some hard winds...
... and some of the snow accumulated on the side of the windshield...
...and was starting to accumulate on the road...
...but then it started to warm up above freezing shortly after getting onto Interstate 10.
There were even bikers on the road...
...then in Tucson there was sun and partly cloudy skies.
Tucson has some nicely decorated overpasses ...
... and highway walls...
... brightly colored and depicting the mountains and other southwestern themes.
We left Tucson behind and passed Picacho peak which is now a familiar sight to us on I-10
A little farther down the road there was a truck mishap leaving the trailer on it's side. There were no ambulances and I'm hoping the driver was in good shape.
All along the drive were some impressive clouds...
... sometimes hidden behind billboards. This particular Blue Beacon is one we stopped at on the way here and we highly recommend them for a quick RV or Truck wash.
Finally at the airport the girls ...
... disembarked from the ruggedized Mini Musemobile to find their flight...
... leaving me to wait for Matt's return. We did already get the call they had arrived safely five minutes after Matt and I got back to Sierra Vista.
I snapped all the way home until my batteries died getting the overpasses in Phoenix...
... and they are works of art flowing over, around, under each other like a giant Guardian Knot ...
... not easily untangled.
They also had a simpler design of their access ramp in Phoenix as opposed to the colorful designs in Tucson.
Although this is cool it's not a highway wall.
I love teardrop trailers...
... and sunsets in the desert...
... full of color and promise.
Scrabble - Matt and Sharyn were playing I-phone Scrabble but never finished the game.
