Out To The Desert

  Some of the easternmost extinct volcanoes in the Cinder Hills. Usually I say I'm going down to the desert, meaning I'm headed south off the Colorado Plateau, but if I say I'm going out to the desert it means that I'm heading east. Technically this is also going downhill but still atop the Colorado Plateau. If you go to the Verde Valley or the Valley of the Sun you are dropping thousands of feet vertical. Generally speaking I prefer the high country but in a long winter the moderate temps of the desert are attractive. By late winter I'd rather be in the warmth looking up at snowy mountains than to be in the snow looking down at warmth. I didn't really have much of a plan. I watched basketball in the morning, went for my first run of the year at Fort Tuthill County Park,  then decided to go out to the Twin Arrows Casino on the Navajo Nation for a late lunch. Strangely enough, I do not gamble, except for the lottery which can be bought at any convenience store. H
