Sunday and Monday we didn't do anything exciting to document. Tuesday we both had a dentist appointment and turned out we both are having crowns. I broke a tooth a month ago and Judy had a large old cavity needing some work. I will say a crown in AZ is less painful that MI, $700 vs $1000. In addition we now have better dental insurance so instead of costing $500 it's only $200. See kids, we have saved a little of your inheritance.
Wednesday was a busy day. Up at 6am and in Phoenix at 8 am to have air bags installed on the truck. OOPS kids, there went the $$$ we saved yesterday. After the air bags were installed we went to see Chet Riley who was in Phoenix visiting his daughter and her family. We had a very good visit and lunch at a good Mexican restaurant.
After visiting with Chet we stopped at the Casa Grande Indian ruins on the way home. The Indians must have taught today's farmers how to irrigate the land for crops. They started irrigation ditches 1500 years ago. AZ has much more green fields that we have seen since leaving AL. Did you know AZ's largest crop is cotton? We didn't. Everywhere you see a large field growing a crop you see irrigation ditches and pipelines everywhere. Casa Grande means great or large house. The ruin in the pic is 4 storied tall and the largest discovered. There were walls around 2 acres with many small homes inside. This was one of many similiar villages in the area.
