We didn't know how far we could get because of the rain Sunday, there still was water running over the road at Torilla Flat as seen below. But we decided not to go any farther on the Trail today, the water wasn't that deep others were going through but it was 1:30 and it takes another 2 hours or so to finish the drive, we'll do it another day.
We of course had lunch at the restarant at Torilla Flat, it is a must. I had BBQ chicken sandwich and Ken had a Bullrider burger, both were very good. Notice the dollar bills on the walls and business cards and foreign currency.
It is just a tourist place!!! We did pick up a gift and postcards.
Here's the fun art in the ladies restroom!
We pass by Canyon Lake on the way up to Torilla Flat, it is a beautiful drive. The Lake is closed because of all the rain, too much floatsum in the water.
Ken has to climb out to take a panaramic photo.
We stopped at Goldfield on the way back, another tourist spot, for ice cream and photos.
It was a fun day! I now have another book to read The Apache Trail (a Storybook guide to Arizona's Historical Highway). I did finish the book on Apacheland, fun to read about the movies made and the ups and downs of the of a movie and tourist western lot.
So many feelings fit between two heart beats
so many objects can be held in our two hands
Don't be surprised we can't describe the world
and just address things tenderly by name. Zbigniew Herbert
