Ah, the fresh desert air. Where's the snow?
Meanwhile, Scott Jarrett, another Norski hailing from Japan, soared over the Pacific Ocean. Destination: SaddleBrooke - for a reunion with his old childhood partner in crime from West (by God) Virginia, Dickie Robertson.
The best way to mix all this ethnic diversity (Swedes, Norwegians, Irish, Dutch and West Virginians)was to get them to the table.
Scott's appetite was amazing. Check out the burrito!
A little hiking...in snow and icy rain (sneet)...
a longer hike up to Romero pools,
The hike was long; the terrain was rocky; the elevation gain was ...significant! At the end, we felt a little tired and dried out!
But before we knew it...it was time for a rest...
a glimpse of the pink mountains..."when the mountains turn pink..."
and then another meal. Can those Norskis put away the salsa!
They came for warm weather and sunshine; they came to talk about old memories and create new ones. They left SaddleBrooke with new old friends, new stories to tell and a great new recipe for jalopena lefse!

Hey Brenda!
Great job on the blog. You've really have a great start and your following will multiply. Nice, breezy writing style you have to go with lots of pictures. People love that. Your biggest asset, of course, is the big lunk leftist hubby of yours, who will be the constant source of new and wacky material for posting.
The hit counter is a tricky thing. Google "free hit counter" and you will come up with lots of options. The tough part is figuring out how to embed the HTML line in your blogspot program (settings menu). I have done one hit counter successfully and two unsuccessfully so I am not much of a mentor there.
Keep up the good work!
Stan
