Labor Day at Greens Peak

Our family was in dire need of a little getaway, so we decided to take a little drive up to Greens Peak.  We couldn't have picked a better day to go.  The sun was out, but there were just enough clouds and breeze to keep us cool.  And of course, thanks to the great monsoon season we've had this year, it was SUPER green!
Sisters...even though they may deny it at times, they DO love each other!

Jennah and Stevie at the top of the peak.  The view from up there is just spectacular!
Because there is only so much you can do at the top, we headed back down to play in one of the little groves.Stevie was so fascinated by the moss on the rocks.  He even asked if that was what carpet was made of :)Jennah, practicing her swing with her daddy.

One peculiar thing about the area...if you look closely at the ridge of the hills, the trees only grow on the south side of the peaks.  Anyone out there know why?

Stevie can never tell us enough how much he loves us.  He does it even more now that he knows how to say it in sign language :)
One of the most beautiful places in Arizona.  And the cost...FREE!
