Another WET Day

We woke up to a steady rain again this morning. The weather forecast said "occasional showers," but there was nothing occasional about it! Damp and chilly, not my idea of a fun day. We had planned a drive today, but figured we wouldn't see much, so put it off for another day.

We had some visitors early this afternoon If they don't bellow or moo, you'd never know they were there. They drift in and out of the bushes like shadows.



The cattle disappear almost as quickly as they appear. The ground drops off towards the river valley very quickly just a short distance from the fence and they take one of trails on down to the bottom.


I went onto the Internet today and looked for a camera repair place in the Phoenix area. I found a shop in the Mesa/Chandler area that had really good reviews on Yelp!. It sounded like they actually did repairs instead of just sending the camera back to the factory. I had dropped my Canon SX a few weeks ago and cracked the LCD screen. The fellow at Arizona Camera Works gave me an estimate over the phone that sounded pretty reasonable, so we decided to take it over there. It was a pretty straight shot to the shop on Highway 87.

We did just fine until we got to the address. It was in one of those complexes with several buildings each with multiple small businesses in them. First of all, the fellow had moved from the address we had, Building 3120, to Building 3150. We called back to see where he was and got directions, then had a heck of a time finding it. After our third trip around the complex, we finally found him. Sounds like it'll take about a week to get the new screen in...

From there, since we were in the area, we went over to Camping World. But, that store is now called Adventure RV. They consolidated the two Mesa stores and now have only the large store on Main Street. Forry found the hose he was looking for, but not the map book. (We are looking for a map of Arizona counties.)
