RE: [Az-Geocaching] summer fires

According to the article in the Arizona Repugnant...uh...Republic yesterday
(please consider the source), the Mount Lemmon Cafe was not destroyed by the
fire. The article stated that they lost the roof to the patio and the
plastic furniture melted but otherwise it made it through. Hopefully we'll
be able to have pies there this winter after all! The Lodge next door was a
total loss. Nothing but two feet of rubble remains.

It's amazing how random fire is, isn't it?

What a tragedy!

Kevin and I adore Summerhaven! When we first moved to Tucson, we often drove
up the mountain for a picnic so he could escape the grad school stress. I
fell in love with one of the gift shops up there that I never missed each
trip up. Then we learned of the pies at the cafe! Mmmmm!


When we moved to Phoenix, we made a point to return at least once a year. We
were just up there last month with my car club for a meet. We had lunch at
the cafe, and I was too full for pie...so I missed my last chance at pie.
And the group was in a hurry to get down the mountain before sunset, so I
didn't visit the gift shop...and boy am I kicking myself now!


Sorry about the hormonal ramblings of a pregnant woman...I feel like I've
lost an old friend.
