Horton Spring

If all goes well the Kadizzles will have a new home in Payson, AZ. in the fall. It will be an entire new area to explore.  With out friends Al and Deb we took an eight mile hike to Horton Spring yesterday.  The exosphere up in the mountains is a different world from life here in the desert. The smell of pine is always refreshing. Hiking up the trail the stream was dry for the first small portion, then the water suddenly was a good sized stream with fish.  After a long slug there it was the spring. This was not the typical spring, it was water gushing our of the rocks and roaring down the mountain only to eventually disappear. Although the walk was relatively gentle Kadizzle managed to end up sore.  Kadizzle's muscles have become attuned to riding the ebike, not walking. The trail had no signs prohibiting ebikes, and someday we may ride it. 

The American medical system is insane.  For about a one hour visit to the emergency room for a kidney stone Kadizzle is being billed over four thousand dollars. Today we fight the hospital billing department.
