Took the gals out to hike Vulture Peak this morning. Wind was blowing from the northwest, a very chilly 50-degrees here in Wickenburg. Adrenaline was pumping, no one was complaining, and plans were afoot to share the hiking poles on the ascent to the Peak (of Vulture Peak).
Betsy and Pat are veteran climbers and made it to the top -- some 3,526' above the Sonoran Desert, overlooking Wickenburg to the northeast, and catching a glimpse, if you looked hard enough, of Kingman, AZ way off in the distance.
As for Sammy and me, we climbed into the car. Back at home we had chores to tackle, leaving our "huespedes hermosas" -- translates to "pretty guests" en espanol -- to do the heavy climbing.
More on the adventures of Pat + Betsy in a subsequent post.
