YES....we made it to Phoenix!!! 16/17 of the riders from Virginia and 5/5 of the NOVA Legion Riders arrived today safe and sound in Phoenix. We prensented our check after lunch. How proud I was of all of the blood, sweat, and tears we shed and presented the National Commander with 2 checks. One for One Thousand, One for Tw0 Thousand. That combined with what has been sent in our behalf brings the total raised by our chapter to $3625. Wooo Hooo.
Today brought us out of the cold Gallup, NM high dessert on I-40 then over the mountains, through the Salt River Canyon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_River_(Arizona)) and into Tempe, AZ our final destinations. Temperature ranges today were from 54 when we left Gallup (COOOOOLD) to 108 upon arrival (HOTTTTTTTT). When they say it is a dry heat they are right but 108 is 108 is 108. Lows are equal to Virginia's highs.
It has been a long ride guys and gals but well worth it.........
