Ok AZ peeps, my baby shower is on Sunday, Feb. 24th at 2:00pm at our house.
My thought was - drop off your wives and go with Dan on a run somewhere. We live very close to butcher jones play area, Needles trail (don't know much about it) and not far from Montana Mtn.
Let me know if you want to do this and I can send address and other info you might need!
All your wives are welcome to come, if you PM me their email addresses, I can send them the official evite.
a week early. you all will have a good time though.

I'll take a look at this. I know I'm the trauma dude on the 22nd... I may also be Dr. Weekend, too... If so, I can't get out of range.
There's actually a trail system in your back yard that I've been wanting to revisit. WAAAAAAAAY back when I was first 4 wheeling (1999), I went exploring up above Fountain Hills and followed the river up to a pool with a rock formation overhanging it. There were several ways to go above this pool, mostly following sandy washes. I went up several and they petered out to nothing. One boxed me in so tight that I was driving in with my mirrors folded in, and then I had to back out the same way. I was trying to get up to the lake.
I went back to the river and gave up, but as I did, I noticed a notch in the rock that could be climbed with a little committment. I think it's the way up and over to a different system of trails that would get to the lake.
We may be in town that weekend. The Arizona state senior games are going on that weekend. I am entered, but will make up my mind after this next week if I am competing. Off too long with the knee injections and recovery. But may be able to do it. I have cousins that will be in town that week also so it is likely we will be there. I will let you know after a couple of weeks on the bike starting tomorrow.
I am free that day and I would love to drop off the wife and come out & play in the dirt.
Great idea and thanks for posting this.
