Picture worth 1,000 words?

It’s been unseasonably hot in Phoenix the last few weeks, with temperatures well into the 90s. Both Michelle and Irene are on spring break this week, so we decided to head to the cooler country for a few days. With this vacation planned for several weeks, today we headed to Prescott.

Pity that the storms rolled into Arizona last night. This morning it was already pouring and while it looked like it was going to clear up by the time we were leaving town, apparently it did not.

When we arrived in Prescott we headed for Golden Corral, a buffet restaurant Irene really likes. They were recovering from a power failure and apparently had no croutons nor fried foods because of it. (Their sign actually said “no bread, no soups and no fried foods” – Why else would one go to Golden Corral?)

Immediately upon check-in at the hotel, I got called from work. The storm was pounding Phoenix and our offices lost all power for hours.

We started walking around town, but were soon turned back by rain, and so we were stuck in the hotel for the rest of the day.
