Notable
First hike from the new apartment
Laura and I moved apartments last weekend. For the first time since 2006, I live in a city other than Phoenix. Welcome to Tempe, pronounced tem-PEE, with the accent on the second syllable, and I should make an effort to say it right after saying it wrong for the last nine years.
Wikipedia says Tempe is named after the Vale of Tempe, a gorge in Greece. Greece makes me think of mythology, and a phoenix is a mythological bird, so really the cities are very similar. They're also adjacent.

Well, congrats on the new place...I will have to come see it as it has been many years since I couldn't picture your residence. Please send new address when you have a moment.
Bobby et al.— Done.
