We went to Saguaro National Park today. I decided to hike to the highest peak of the Tucson Mountains (about 4400 feet). It was a very long and arduous hike, but worth it for the views. At the top I could see the Catalinas, Kitt Peak, Mt. Hopkins, and the Tucson Valley. About halfway up the trail, I was tiring quickly and had to stop frequently to “take pictures” and drink some water. But I made it to the top fine and dandy. I slipped a few times coming down, sprained my left ankle, got severely sun burned (despite a generous application of sunscreen), but I mostly arrived to the vehicles in one piece. I had fun anyway.
This afternoon I vegetated in front of the tv while I tried to replenish fluids. Transformers was on the tele. Not a bad movie, though; I always get annoyed when movie plots blame aliens for our modern day technology… as if we weren’t smart or capable enough to create and invent.
Store, aloe, vitamin water, subway with friends, sleeeeeeep…
