Desert Sky, Apache Junction, AZ

            We had quite a surprise when we woke up this morning and looked at the mountain---SNOW.

  Monte got dressed, grabbed his camera and walked across the street to the college and took pictures.

 

 

 

 

 

When he got back home, he suggested we take a ride on Apache Trail to get a better look.

  I made us some hot cocoa to take along.

 

 

 

 

First we drove on Superstition Highway and then on Apache Trail. 

 

 We pulled over across from the Elvis Memorial Chapel to take pictures of other people taking pictures. 

 

 

 

 

 

Later on, while we were having dinner, it started raining.  Or so I thought.  It actually was grabble.  Grabble is a weather term referring to light, hail-like snow. 

When we opened the door to our rig we were surprised to discover everything blanketed with grabble. 

 

 

Pumpkin knows what to do on a cold day.

I decided to bake some mini banana muffins to help warm up our rig.

And since I had the oven warm already I made a batch of brownies.
