    And here I thought it was because on a clear day you could see all the way to San Francisco!

    But seriously, from on top of the highest peak, Humphreys Peak (12,633'), you can see over a hundred miles on a clear day - it just seems like you can see forever.

    In the summertime, if there isn't a thunderstorm, it's a great hike to the top of Humphreys Peak, of course at over 2-miles up it's not for the faint-of-heart or short-of-breath.

    Navajo is probably one of the few languages that can challenge Welsh as, "World's Most Tongue-Twisting Language." No wonder they used it as a "code" in WWII!

    Great pics, Ron! Always love those majestic saguaro cacti & rugged mountains - hey, maybe that's why I live in Phoenix!

    Maybe so, but him wearing any tartan in Wales would be a start

    If he picked the St Davids, or the Pride of Wales, which are more official and wore a cilt here in the Principality he would surely send out the right message and give a boost to Welsh cilts and tartans!

    I don't use myspace switchblade, but I'm sure there are ways of getting a message through to him about it
