Fleeing the Crowds

Most normal people, often referred to as "snowbirds", migrate south to warmer climates during the winter months of the frigid north. In order to avoid this crowded migration, with its characteristic aromas of BenGay, AquaVelva and Channel #5, we choose to travel south during July and August. In this way, we flee the high 90s of Medford to spend quality time in the low 100s of Phoenix and Tucson. As one spends time in this environment, many opportunities for aerobic activities are provided as one dashes from one air-conditioned space to the next or lounges in the tepid waters of a luxurious pool or man-made "river". Photos will accompany the story of this epic journey.
