Enjoyed 2 nights in the Cholla CG. Both nights with full moons rising shortly after dark. Experimented with camera settings and some light painting. Hiking the paths and loops of the CG. Saw a loitering kitty at the marina.

1st trip
4 day / 3 night road trip with Jayden.

Day 1 - From Safford drove up to Roosevelt Lake and set up camp at Cholla CG.
Sightseeing, hiking, swimming, fishing, late night music, conversation & laughs.
Relaxing mellow first day.

Day 2 - Drove up to Tonto Natural Bridge and did the hike down & back.
Always a cool sight, but lots of people on this day so it was a quick visit.
Then off to Cottonwood for a 2 night camp stay at Dead Horse Ranch.
First some park hiking, followed by an evening of walking, shopping & dinner in Cottonwood.
Early bed (for us) at midnight to get rested for Sedona the next day.

Day 3 - Drove up to Sedona and first hiked West Fork.
Then back down to town for a tourist walk down main street and a new tattoo for Jayden.
Cathedral Rock was the evening hike followed by a nice dinner back in town before the drive back to Dead Horse Ranch.

Day 4 - Broke down our 2 day home and drove up to Jerome starting with a visit to Jerome State Historic Park.
Then walked the switchbacks up Jerome to the Haunted Hamburger for lunch followed by some shopping.
Then the sad part of the road trip - time to drive back home :(

Wonderful trip with an awesome friend!
Thank You Jay ...
:D
