If you're into slow service, hum-drum atmospheres, and mediocre food, then the Haunted Hamburger in Jerome is not for you, because you won't find any of that here. Though prime scenic views are not hard to come by, you will find some of the best views here. If you have to wait in line for outdoor seating, it is well worth it. The view over Verde Valley is awesome!

A few weeks ago, I touted about the magical weekend in the middle of October when the weather changes suddenly. And, as Murphy's Law would have it, since I wrote about it, it decided not to happen yet this year. Okay, so I'm looking at the forecast for the next week, and it looks like it gets a little better. Of course, every time I look at the forecast, the temperature for the next few days goes up a few degrees. So it's still unpredictable at this moment.

Two guys, Joe & Bill went camping in the desert. After they got their tent all set up, they fell sound asleep.

Some hours later, Joe wakes his faithful friend and says, "Bill, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

Bill replies, "I see millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?" asked Joe.

Bill ponders for a minute, then says, "Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies, and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo. Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three in the morning.

Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small, and insignificant.

Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

What does it tell you, Joe?"

Joe is silent for a moment, then says, "Bill, you stupid moron, someone has stolen our tent."
