I was amazed at, and very VERY grateful for, how little damage had been done to Summerhaven and
even the road leading up to it.

When I was riding, it was my favorite (by FAR) day trip. From town, 75 miles up and 75 miles down that
uber-curvy mountain road at about 30-35 mph. Slice of one of those heavenly pies at The Mt Lemmon Cafe
(Strawberry/Rhubarb and/or Sour Cream Apple -- YUMMM!!!!!).

Friends would call Friday or Saturday and invite me out drinking. I'd turn them down, explaining that I wanted
to be clearheaded for my Summerhaven trip the next morning.

Once, one of them laughed and told me that my whole life seemed to be revolving around PIE!!!

A woman with whom I shared that little "scolding" had the perfect answer.
