Bronco - Lake - Sunset

[motoman]

The girls had to get their bridesmaid dresses all fitted and I was free to find my own dinner. Tim and I decided to hit Dillion's at Lake Pleasant since it was gorgeous out and some cool lake water was in order.... when we got there Dillion's was closed so we goofed around the lake then found some cool trails down the Aqua Fria to the 303..... what started off as a one hour trip for dinner turned into a night wheeling trip till 10pm! ;D I love my truck!

On the way out I tried to get a shot of my truck in the reflection of the wheels....

Off in the distance we see this helicopter doing static drills... pretty impressive hovering!

Playing around at the boat launch....

Cooling off the hot feet from the floorboards in Bronco

Tim fighting with his Droid.... he just wanted ONE DAMN PHOTO on his phone! HAHAHA

Tim cooling off

Coming around the corner saw this a$$ on the side of road!

Wild burros were all over the place

Playing around on some hills just off Castle Hot Springs..... ;D

As we were getting back onto the highway I saw a trail going south into the Aqua Fria... we'll call this sunset ridge!

As the sun was getting low we ran into this guy! (iPhone pics)

VIDEO - Arizona Diamondback!

Found this cool place, the wash tunnel for the canal

The rest of the evening was some high speed wash running and some great airborne moments..... Thanks for being an awesome co-pilot Tim!

Hope you enjoyed our little Monday adventure!

Hey Motoman....Those are some great pics. Thanks for sharing. How about posting up some detailed pics of your spare tire carrier. Did you fab it yourself or purchase it?

Reflection in the windshield.... the iPhone is mounted on the crossbar behind the glass... think that was it!

Illegal alien tunnel?

20 years ago I came across that tunnel and wanted to ride the canel through it...... but I HATE spiders and knew there had to be a webs in there.. so never did it!

Hey Motoman....Those are some great pics. Thanks for sharing. How about posting up some detailed pics of your spare tire carrier. Did you fab it yourself or purchase it?

I did fab that myself and it goes in the hitch mount.... I made it so that it would hinge down by removing a bolt so you could lower the tailgate....but that was for a 33" tire... now with 37" tires I cannot lower the tire.. it hits the shackle mount.... but it's been a very simple carrier for over 20 years

Great Monday.. wish every evening could be that laid back! Thanks for the replies!!!

Always enjoy the Az. pics. Great job. Btw, I've caught a s-load of bass and crappie out of that lake after they raised the dam.
