Tempe then Up to Northern AZ

31 October - 02 November 2019

The next day Chelsea had some appointments to keep and Heather ran her around. After that we made the mistake of going to the grocery store on Halloween after work but before dark - crazy busy, with half the aisles filled with checkout lines. We grabbed one of the very last pumpkins, which Chelsea expertly carved.


After Heather's appointment the next morning we had breakfast at Butterfields, then picked up some bagels near there at a place we hadn't been before, but looks good. We ran by a compounding pharmacy for more of Chelsea's meds.

The next day I got Chelsea's car emissions tested, then registered, then washed, while Heather got Chelsea to another physical therapy session. Divide and conquer! We had dinner at the Oregano's in Scottsdale. We had our first adult birthday party at one of these for our 40th.


After dinner we drove to a Drury in the north valley for the night. In the morning we had breakfast at bagel place near Dear Valley airport, which turned out to good but busy and overwhelmed and very slow. We drove east along the top edge of the valley then out the Beeline highway to Payson to check out several places where we are interested in potential houses. Most turned out to be in gated communities but we at least got a flavor for the area, then continued on through Pine, Strawberry, and Happy Jack towards Flagstaff.

Heather apparently wanted to have dinner at the mexican restaurant in Flagstaff with the Día de Muertos theme, but the only clue she could come up with for me was "deceased Hispanic", or something like that. I eventually figured out she meant MartAnne's Cafe, which was great as always. After dinner we drove east for a while to the Twin Arrows casino on the other side of the national forest. We had a very nice room for a very average price.
