We have officially returned from our Arizona Odyssey. I had intended to blog a bit while out in the sunny west but it turns out the ‘Rents are not “connected” they’re like, old and stuff. We also had a hard time finding a place to connect that didn’t charge to to do so, a new thing for those of us used to a city with numerous free wireless connections.
