Montezuma’s Castle

Earlier this spring my family traveled to the Verde Valley area of Arizona to ride the Verde Canyon Railroad and visit Montezuma's Castle.

Peaches

School is out and it's peach pickin' season at Schnepf Farms. I took the Fashionista and Sweet Boy on a little field trip to pick Peaches.  Peaches The trees were laden with sweet, juicy peaches. It was gloriously hot day enjoyed by only the sunflowers. Gawk if you must at my huge hat and sunglasses. But the Arizona sun is brutal and I want to be melanoma free.  We picked several pounds of the glorious fruit. You know what that means... Schnepf Farms is also famous for their ... View the Post
