Moments before this thing met its face. They’re kind of cool looking.

With the crazy wind that hit our area last week, we had hundreds of them on the back deck which allowed me to hone my smashing skill.

Turns out they're very aware of what's behind them, so they always jump forward which is why they're so hard to hit.

Using a fly swatter, I swing at them from the front to greatly increase the slugging percentage.

Someone in my neighborhood had a power wheels sitting out for free recently...

Pulled out the old wiring mess...

Added new wiring to the battery and a small cheap battery from Amazon (battery is now secured with a makeshift foam battery box)

Add a second battery in series and it might do wheelies.  Might wanna get her a helmet though.  

And then when she out grows it, do this.

Yeah I may do that - I have another similar battery that I use for kayak/fishing stuff that would work.  You can also run them off of 18v/24v power tool batteries.

Can Blue get you in trouble for trespassing? I was thinking of hiking the trails at Camelback but didnt feel like asking them.

No trespass. Signed a waiver, gave us a white wristband and they just let us walk around.

That's pretty rad. I haven't seen a cactus like that in the wild. I've been to UT, northern AZ, Monument Valley, and NV. But lots of Joshua Trees.... Joshua Trees everywhere

Cactus are like trees around here. They're everywhere.

Nice pictures. 

Well thank you sir. Free day today since we got everything we needed to get done yesterday. Debating on Grand Canyon, Sedona, Lost Dutchman (superstition mountains) or maybe going to Jerome. I'm leaning towards Sedona or GC but we'll see.
