January 2021

Mesa, Arizona, is a place where snowbirds stay during winter. Occasionally, it gets really cold there too. We were wintering in Mesa hoping to get some really nice weather, but when we arrived, it was chilly. A couple of storms blew in blanketing the surrounding mountains in snow.

 It’s not usual for the Four Peaks (above) to get snow in winter, but it is for Superstition Mountain (below).  This storm really blanketed the Four Peaks, and dumped a fair amount on Superstition too.

It only lasted a couple of days before it melted.

We spent most of January in the area mostly getting medical visits taken care of. It was also nice being close to so many stores. It made shopping really easy. We enjoyed eating out several times too.

One thing about Arizona, the sunsets are fabulous!
