Urban Art is thriving in Phoenix. That's where I found my clue (make sure you look closely at the full sized picture).

hmm, a hint. How about if you were to go from the welcome diner to the white things as skysong without using the freeway you're likely to see it. Streets are in the teens.

It was a pretty entertaining evening. I decided to go just before sunset, so I grabbed a camera, rode out to the mural, pulled the camera out of my pocket, and opened the case to find my Creative Zen. Arrgh! That's ok, I have an old digital in the pet carrier. So I pulled it out of the pet carrier, inserted the AAs, and they were both dead. Grr Arrgh!.

So all I got is crappy cellphone pics.

All that made me hungry, so I stopped by the next tag. Not just any Bill Johnson's, but this one:

If you need a hint, and you've been in the Valley for a while, about 20 years ago the only reason to be in that neighborhood was if you had a hunger of a different kind.

Is everyone busy? Or haven't I made it clear enough?

How's this for a clue? The Original.

The original Bill Johnson's Big Apple is the last tag posted. It should be pretty easily found. Please, pick it up and get this going again while the weather holds!

OK so I figured I would wait until temps hit triple digits to jump in!

So I think my new tag is pretty simple right?

Ok, I'm lost now. This isn't just a post your random PHX area pic thread, is it? Glenn's was certainly just a random shot (not a bad one, to be sure, but also not even Glenn's scoot).

So DSMAZ, are you going to start us off again with a new tag? If so, that's cool, but which one do you want to use, the dealer or the theater?

Apologies for the confusion! Easy to tell I'm new at this I guess!

So the Ride Now pic was in response to Glen's 'model' photo and mine beneath that was intended to be the restart of a Phoenix Scooter tag.

Felt good to get out this morning. Was nice and overcast, no traffic yet either. I did a valve and carb adjustment Friday morning and got some fresh gas in the tank too. All made for a happy ET...ha

Nice one, Tempe-ET. I thought about using that fountain over on MB, but when I went there it wasn't running.
