Show Low... Fun. Beautiful. Rainy. Stuck!

Duane here:
Angie and I have been in Showlow for two weeks now since I am doing an emergency room rotation at the local hospital. Last night we decided to go to the Movie Gallery to rent a movie, it was a beautiful night and had been raining lightly for a couple hours...Unfortunately, older cars like Geo Prizms don't have antilock brakes and we slid into the back of a truck at about 5mph when someone in front of them couldn't decide if they wanted to turn left or not and never moved over into the center lane. The truck's tailhitch did a number on our hood and radiator, so we can't get very far right now...Maybe Angie will post a picture ;)
Angie's jumping in:
A lot has happened since we got up here a couple weeks ago. I probably wouldn't have noticed how many interesting things we've seen and done, except I've been documenting our time here with the camera.
First, here is the car... the radiator was a little smashed in, so it'll probably only go a couple miles before overheating. Basically, we're stuck up here till someone else can come get us.
We could hardly wrip Kalvin from the race car arcade!
Who's having more fun here?
Don't mess with Mama!
Here are some from earlier in the day and week.
Watch out for the prickly caterpillar!

Here's Duane assessing the damage the morning after. I'd say there's something wrong with that hood...
I'll have you know, just before the accident we were having a lot of fun downtown at the Family Fun Park! Kalvin had a blast on the toddler bikes and arcades.
The storm is rolling in!

Bath time fun!
You can see we're having a good time in Show Low. Now, if we can just figure out a way to get home...
Duane here, just thought I would post to let everyone know I'm real.

When Angie expressed interest in photography, I jumped right into the internet to find her some equipment. I can't help myself, I love buying gadgets!
Tonto Natural Bridge

I'm new to blogging, but I'm way excited to get into it! It looks like so much fun!
My family took a trip to Tonto Natural Bridge (ten miles north of Payson) a couple weekends ago and I loved it so much that Duane and I took my sister, Ruth, and her friend, Emily, the next week for a photo shoot. We had a blast!
Everyone wanted to know who these models were and questions like, "What magazine is this for?", "Is it Prom or a Wedding?" and "Is this for REI?". The girls soaked in all the attention and really got into the mood. Check out our fav's.

Replicating the arch.
I love how she blends in.
After an hour of of staying dry (even with a dripping ceiling), the girls went under the misting waterfall and got wet. What great sports!
The only thing that would have made this trip better was to have hiked in water. oops! By the end of the shoot we were all very thirsty... and we still had to make our way back up the winding trail (good thing the trail isn't too long).
