Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale AZ

Part one of our multi-part mission to Arizona is complete and we are still a functioning couple and without injury so I am hopeful we will make it home after driving 1300+ miles together. I might be too optimistic, we just completed the easy stage: fly to Phoenix and spend three nights at the Four Seasons Resort in Scottsdale with Bill's parents. Hmmm, mission accepted! Typically Bill and I stay at hotels near railroad switching yards and strip clubs but we thought we would compromise and try the Four Seasons, just to see how the other half lives. We adapted quickly, even in the intense heat here, we just sat poolside in a cabana while misters kept us cool and an attendant brought us lemon water and tucked towels behind our heads. It was a difficult transition for me but I was up for the challenge of staying at an actual resort-resort. Not a last resort which is where we're headed once we leave Bill's parents, trust me.

I didn't hear anyone whispering about the glare coming off our white bodies at the hotel and Bill did find a shirt with buttons on it that didn't say "TRIATHLON" so I think we fit in alright. Bill's parents treated us to some amazing dinners, last night we had fabulous steak that I'm still trying to digest, and we ate out more in the past 3 days then Bill and I would in a month. Must be time for us to go camping and start eating out of a can. (Not yet! Oh please not yet. )

Fortunately part of this mission is to acquire a Jeep Grand Cherokee from Bill's dad for us to drive home to Oregon. Major bonus: we are keeping the Jeep!!!! I'm really hoping Bill doesn't say anything ridiculous to upset his Dad because the Jeep is midnight blue, has a DVD player in the back and shiny wheels that make the corners of my mouth turn up. I need to think of a way to keep Bill quiet for the next 24 hours while we are here. Do you think his parents will notice if I tie him up in the back of the Jeep? Kidding! Kidding! I swear I'm kidding. See you later, I've got to go look for some rope...
