ilanarama: me on a bike on the White Rim trail (biking)
As I mentioned in my post about our spring trip, pretty much as soon as we came back we made plans to return to the Scottsdale area with friends for Thanksgiving. Rolfe and Kristin are a couple we've done many vacations with, and Frank and June are also good friends we like to do things with; all are mountain bikers, though none are crazy expert lunatic riders, and so we felt they'd all enjoy the easy-moderate riding of the McDowell Sonoran preserve. In addition, Frank and Rolfe are Britt's occasional golfing partners, and Scottsdale is a popular winter golfing destination. (Also we are all vaccinated and boosted, and careful about activities among people.) So we rented a big house, divvied up the Thanksgiving feast responsibilities, and headed south for a four-day Arizona adventure.
