More office pets

First off so that everyone knows, this is Danny. I realize that it says that it is posted by Kristin but that is because I just haven't taken the time to open my own account. So I have actually written several posts like Vulture City, Office pets and so on. I'll make a point to identify myself so not to confuse anyone.

Anyway, I thought you guys would like to meet Scorpio. He's a very friendly little guy just so long as you don't look at him, touch him or blow on him.

Cute little guy, isn't he.

Danny's Trip Up Camelback!

This is Danny speaking now even though I'm not into the whole "blogging thing". I changed my text color so that you will know that it is me speaking. Anyway.

Last Saturday, Danny got up before the sun (that doesn't happen very often!) (isn't she funny, Ha Ha) to go on a hike with Bill (his co-worker) up Camelback in Scottsdale (north of Phoenix).

This is NOT a hike we would take the family on. It's a bit of a climb and there are times that it's a little treacherous. She is correct, at least to not take our kids at their age up it. Maybe in a few years. There were several times when you are scrambling up a rock ridge and death is taunting you on both sides. But if that doesn't sound like fun to you then you don't know what fun is.

Since he's not into the whole "blogging thing" I'm posting these photos for him. We'll see if I can talk him into writing a little bit about it then. Just a little bit.

This is a mountain just to the north of Camelback but I don't know what the name of it is. If you click on the pictures you can see some of the enormous houses around the area.

This is aiming down the north side.

This (photo above) is facing southeast towards the San Tan Moutains and our house. If you look real hard you can see our house but you really have to want to see it.

This (photo above) is facing southwest towards downtown Phoenix from the summit. Elevation at the summit of Camelback is 2704 feet. It is beautiful and breezy.

And finally this facing the northwest towards mountains that I again do not know the name of.
