Saturday- 2/25 Meet at Bosa Donuts on N Higley in Gilbert around 7:00-7:30 (based on if you want to eat before hand). We will be departing Bosa Donuts at 8:00am for Pinetop. We will stop for lunch at Pinetop Brewing for beer/lunch. We will drive to the Showlow Musuem to stretch out our legs and walk off beer/food before heading back.
Make sure to have a full tank of gas.

Thanks to Joshua for coordinating a nice drive to the white mountains. I needed to just drive and enjoy the day after a super long week at work. I'm glad to see Nate and Chris could join us. It was fun!

Dam, I just missed this one.
