I'm really sorry 'bout that Joe. I had muted my phone earlier in the day expecting to turn it back on later in the day when I thought you'd be back. Kurt and I started drinking and talking and I lost track of time. 38 years worth of "Do you remember" and "Wasn't it you...." and just reminiscing in general burned a lot more time than I imagined.
Freaking hot too......114 by mid day!!

I wasn't prepared for that at all. Who needs blue pidgeons when you can cook illegals right there on the sidewalks? I gave the valet at the hotel a extra five to park my truck in the shade, he said the shady spots are an extra twenty. But seriously Pheonix is a beautiful city and the drive from LA takes one thru some truely scenic dessert.
