Sunday - Jan 9

Nice day today. When the neighbour went by on her way to church, asked her to put in a good word for me. Hope she remembered, as I need all the help I can get.

We went right downtown Phoenix today, we had never been there and wanted to see it. With traffic being slow, figured Sunday would be a good choice. It was interesting, but really not that much to do down there unless there are events on at the convention centre or Chase stadium.

From there we went to downtown Scottsdale for lunch. With the big football game on it seemed everyone was either in Auburn orange or Oregon green. Had a great lunch at a little bistro. Marg had some kind of deluxe salad & I tried the Rueben. Both were excellent and the portions so large we never had dessert, which was really their specialty. Ice cream social tonite in the park, so we really only need ice cream once a day. We mooched around the boutiquish stores in the sun & really enjoyed ourselves. The old downtown area in Scottsdale is very nice, it's one of the trendy places to go & was very busy. On the way back we stopped in teh Bass Pro shop in Mesa, it was good, but no Cabella's. Next time we will just go out to Glendale & the Cabella store.
