Our Saturday Adventure

On Saturday we took the family and had an adventure.  We live in the agricultural part of Arizona and right now hay is being cut, baled and stacked. There are tons of cotton fields and they are just starting to blossom out.  This is a cotton field not to far from our home.  The watering system is rather interesting as there are not any overhead sprinklers (have seen very few) as they irrigate from huge canals and flood fields.

We drove by the Gilbert Temple.  It is about 30 minutes from our house.  It will be nice when it is finished.  We are about a year out before it is opened.

We drove by Brook and Elton’s house to see what the tent looked like.  They moved into a house that had bed bugs and it had to be fumigated with a gas.  They stayed with us while this process was being done.

We went to the Olive Mill and got to see olive trees with olives on them and got to play under the trees. 

        

    

   

    Inside of the Olive Mill is a man that roasts coffee beans and makes his own blends.  He let Brea and Payton help him put the beans in the roaster.  It was a very educational experience for me as I had never seen this process done before. 

     

We had a good time.  Thanks Curry family for going with us on our adventure.
