It got hot fast here. So hot. On the hottest day to date, Thursday, our air conditioner broke. Of course. Thankfully, my wonderful Gil is an HVAC tech and knew immediately how to fix it. It took a little bit, but we were back at a comfortable temperature by mid-morning Friday.
To escape the heat, we decided to head back up to the Rim. We got a new tent (so exciting!) and took off Friday afternoon. We snagged a campsite, set up camp, and enjoyed a lovely afternoon, night, and morning in the woods.
Gil is our camp cook extraordinaire! I prep everything at home and he gets it all cooked at camp. This time we made kabobs for dinner and they were delicious.
In the morning, we took a hike around a mountain lake, then headed over to the Rim Visitor Center.
We didn't linger but headed home to make it in time to meet my high school friend and her family in Scottsdale. They were embarking on a bus tour of the Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce, and other sites along the way. We met them at their hotel and took advantage of the resort pool. So good to see her and catch-up. Could have used another few hours. I am so blessed to have good friends.
