| S is getting material for a new set of potholders - this may have something to do with her Catholic childhood - to be clear, this is one of many roadside death shrines I have had to u-turn to during my driving day so S can endanger herself and everyone else on the road in order to snap photos to be used in potholder making mania - maybe we too will have a shrine soon! |

| Noftsger Hill Inn - closed |
 |
| you get a whole classroom - but closed |
Noftsger Hill Inn in Globe is not where we are tucked in tonight, not that we didn't give it a shot; we did but it was locked so we are at home in the Best Western Copper Hills Inn suckin' up the sheets and pillows, etc. It rained while we had some more Mexican food.
Kind of had a difficult journey to Globe in some ways: almost went to Phoenix and then there was the time spent in Casa Grande which was kind of an odd mix of admiration and foreboding. Great library though. And the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument was stunning - the Hohokam people didn't have a cliff for dwelling so they made these mud mountain big houses and lots of mud this' and that's plus for whatever reason the US federal government choose to make this astonishing tribute site.
Other than the rebuke I received for lack of navigation skills it was a reasonable and fair travel day. Tomorrow has not come up for discussion as yet.
