general Crook Trail - a mt bike ride from the Verde home...pretty fun and great on Orange bike- my gear bike for some of the Steep ups- it is a motorized trail... Have yet to see another person on the trail...

pretty country....

flooding back yard....with our water rights ...The Verde river irrigation....amazing...just turn a valve and there you go water.....I feel pretty lucky to have Water rights for irrigation...a few ducks enjoyed the temporary pond....could not get a pic of it full due to darkness...

we have a valve on each side of the drive way to flood our land..

Charlie our neighbor showing me for the first time how much to open the valve....irrigation is from March - nov/dec....
