March 2011 - Peralta Trail

In March 2011 we stayed at the vacation home of our friends Tilley and Frank.  This was in a 55+ community in Mesa.  It was a bit odd staying there but I actually really liked it.  Pool and hot tub, shuffleboard, tennis courts that no one else was strong enough to use ... What more could you want?  We scored a couple free bags of grapefruits off a fence in Apache Junction, and I enjoyed grapefruit margueritas all week long.  Michele wasn't so thrilled by the lifeless empty house (Tilley and Frank had just bought it and hadn't even used it yet) but we both liked the neighborhood.

Peralta Trail is in the Superstition Mountains, accessed via the community of Gold Canyon which is just east of Mesa / Apache Junction on highway 60.
