  August 27-29 2021 Well you won’t see many pictures from our ride to Show Low and the White Mountains. We were having too much fun swishing around the mountains. The four of us, Jim & Marla Merryman, Ed and myself left Kingman on Friday with our first stop in Williams and had brunch at Anna’s Canyon Cafe. Very popular spot, with good food. The weather was perfect. No jackets required.  Afterwards we headed down I40 and jumped on 98A towards Sedona. There’s no doubting Sedona’s beauty. We took the 260 through some beautiful areas and quaint little towns, Camp Verde, Strawberry and Pine. The road was long but had many gentle curves and gorgeous scenery. There were a couple of sticky tar snakes that grabbed you, but mostly perfect.  We stayed in Payson for two nights and enjoyed some down time by the pool. Didn’t know it at the time, but we came back with a lot of mosquito bites (like 15!). We had intended on riding Devil’s Highway, but ran out of time. All the ro...

  SUNDAY   8 Aug 2021 The BoatHouse Bar & Grille MRHOG member Paul Connolly put out an invite on the Facebook page to join him for a Sunday ride out to Meadview.  It was a very pleasant, beautiful day and with the breeze, it helped to keep the temperature comfortable. Ed and I truly enjoyed Paul and Barb’s company and feel we got to know them a little bit better. Thanks for the invite Paul!  A comment from Paul A comment from Sebrena
