Thanksgiving Picnic @ Castle Hot Spring
















































































It's a wonderful day today, as what we are planning we are going picnic this Thanksgiving Day. What we've decided is going to Castle Hot Spring for a picnic, exploring in the desert and looking for some nice rocks. We know that there is a possibility for a rain showers and clouds is dark but who cares it's Thanksgiving Day anyway. We are living in Peoria so we started on the Lake Pleasant road and it's been a long time they went to Castle Hot Spring so they forgot how the road feels like. It's seems a little bumpy rocky road and road is on the dried river banks. Just enjoying our day seen couple of rainbows and a lot of stopping's for some very nice views and looking for some nice rocks. All I've observed is that they probably making the river banks as a road cause all year around is mostly dry and might having some waters only whenever it rains but you know Arizona warm all the time and bearly having rain. But if ever the river has high water they used the other road farther more on the way going to Wickenberg. It's like a long drive on a rocky bumpy road and my company keep on saying that they don't think they drove in the river banks before and they been on both ways before. Every time we are in the truck it rains and sunshine comes out everytime we reach on some interesting nice place. It's a beautiful day, a little chilly but we have our jackets with us. God is giving us a wonderful day in this Thanksgiving Day to enjoy our picnic. Castle Hot Spring is a private property now so nobody can go inside, we are just having picnic outside and viewing from outside. These place used to be popular 1800's and up to middle 1900's, very much popular that the hot spring can cure. If you want to know the story about this place check on this site:http://www.ghosttowns.com/states/az/castlehotsprings.html. http://www.myrvadventures.com/SUB/SUB4/CASTLE%20HOT%20SPRINGS.htm. Instead of going back to we're we've started back home we continued going to Morristown. The road is a little better but still in the dirt road and sign says 21 Miles only but seems we are driving for forever. The very nice part is on our way we meet a snow hail storm, within 10-20 minute. ground is covered with ice and feels like somebody's throwing tiny rocks on the roof of the truck. That was my 1st time seeing a snow shower. That was our wonderful Thanksgiving picnic and when we reach Phoenix we stopped by at the Country Buffet for dinner. Well Thanksgiving is also about eating a lot so we starts digging in again.
