I am trying to post everything from the trip so bear with me! All this pics and photobucket are taking their toll!!
Well Thursday after leaving Vegas, we headed to Jamie and Rodney! Well the trip tool a little longer than expected due to construction and back ups at the damn, Hoover Dam! LOL
Little did we know that the night would get longer as Jamie never wants the fun to end, and either did we!
Jamie and Rodney are the most incredible couple! Not only are they just so darn nice and fun, but their pure love of rocks and the desert in which they live just shines through! Jamie had the most wonderful night planned with Sheri, JC and ROXY!!!!!!
She made an incredible dinner, pork loin, stuffed mushrooms, she is a fabulous cook, and just watching her in action makes you tired, she moves at the speed of lightening!
Well this is going to be long, so here are some pics!
The Damn Dam!
One small section of their yard, you can ask them where any rock is and they go flying off to find it in one of their many piles!
Kaitlyn:An adorable little girl, she is so polite and so cute!
And now, Jamie's butt!!!! LOL, That is really all you see of her, cause she is always 50 steps ahead of everyone and has her head down into something she is doing! LOL, Wanted to see whose butt is more popular, hers or Biker Randy's???
And a drum roll for ROXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God love this girl, she is so darn cute and such a sweetheart, I was so happy she came over to hang with us and meet us! She is the best, I told her we miss her posts, so she promised to not be such a stranger! We love ya Roxy!
opening her gift from me
My penis rock I found int he creek with Naturenut, I gave it to Roxy! LOL
Me and Roxy in our favorite colors, black and pink, LOL
OK, so then Rockhobbit(Sheri) and her beau JC were there! Sheri called me on the drive and said to wave when we passed her house, LOL, and there she was all smiles! Sheri is a doll, she had to run off early, we so wish we could have spent more time with her and everyone that night! She and JC are so cute and I am so happy for them!
Also had a special visit with Jasper, my little traveling companion! I had to bribe him with Jerky to get this picture, he is a mama's boy, I guess our travels made him a little homesick! LOL
So around 11:30 we were saying goodbye and Jamie was not quite accepting that, we had reservations in Phoenix that night and plans to go to Payson 85 miles North of Phoenix the next day! Not one to disappoint her, we decided around midnight,what could be more fun than a midnight trip on the quads! Not exactly sure what this meant I knew we would be in for some trouble! LOL
Rodney stated that men were not allowed to ride with him, something about a man's junk being too close to his butt, LOL! So he settled for me and my big boobs, which I think got left in AZ on that ride, LOL. Holy crap have you ever rode through he desert at night on a 4 wheeler? Very scary stuff! All I could think about were the snake pics, the scorpion warnings, I was a little freaked! But it was cool, and I totally felt confident that Jamie and Rodney could handle any crisis! Sure enough there was one!
A few miles into the ride at now 1:00 am, my 18 hour bra had quit working, and a boob was lost, but then I felt a stabbing pain in my knee, and I was screaming for Rodney to stop, I was sure that some animal had latched onto my leg and was sucking the life out of me, then I touched my knee and my hand hurt, LOL
Well I found out about the cholla cactus of the desert!
You might want to check out this video to learn more!
So Rodney thinks that a wild dog got a hold of me and pulls off like a bat outta hell, and I am still screaming! Finally he stops, and Jamie's catches up, and they shine the light on me, and sure enough I have the cholla ball stuck to my leg! Cripes does that sucker hurt! So Rodney finds 2 sticks and pulls it out! Then on to my fingers, eventually Rodney pulled the last barb out with his teeth! LOL!
So they ask if I want to keep going, well we didn't come that far to quit, so of course we went on, I am feeling really bad for Rodney at this point, he is so darn nice, and I am all freaked out!
Well we decide it is too late to collect rocks, so we go to this high red wall, well the night photos didn't turn out to well, but it was a great night,m talking with Jamie and Rodney in the middle of the dessert, with the stars and a lightening storm in the distance!
A little snake that they hid from me so I wouldn't keep screaming!
So there it was! I know you guys love a post that involves heinous injuries and lots of creepy crawlers! LOL
We had a blast and finally made it to the hotel at 4 am, I know Jamie wanted us to stay, but I knew I would be having a desert disaster! LOL
And now to thank them! Jamie and Rodney, you gave us a night to remember, and in transit are boxes of incredible rocks that Jamie and Rodney gave us, they were picking out all their great stuff, they are so incredibly generous and just the best! Rodney and Jamie helped tape up 8 boxes of rocks we collected and took them to the post office for us, thank you! And knowing Jamie, even more was added!
Here are some of the beautiful things so far!
A beautiful dream catcher that Roxy made! She made one for Tony as well, he will have to post!
A little crystal she wrapped!
2 Beautiful wraps from Sheri, and rocks for Tony that are in transit!
A beautiful wrap of Jamie's confetti chyrsacolla that she made!
A shell and pearl necklace that Jamie made!
Some of Rodney's turquoise cabs
A SMALL sampling of beautiful rocks that Jamie and Rodney shared, shattukite, confetti chrysacolla, and beautiful chrysacolla.
We can't thank you all enough! You made us so happy, and we had a blast, we will be coming to visit soon!
We love all of you!!!
