Perfect day today. The over night low was 46 degrees and the high today was 69 degrees.  Sunny and no wind.  Had my 12th treatment this morning, scheduled for 10:00 AM, they were 30 minutes late.  When I got back we tried out the light rail.  We took it to the station past the Heard Museum, then went back east to Roosevelt and Priest.  There is a food court there and we split a tuna sub at the Port of Subs. The sub was large and good, especially the bun.  We were on our way to the Hall of Flames, a museum of fire fighting and fire fighting equipment. They really had a lot of fire engines dating from the 1700's to fairly modern.  They had shoulder patches from all over.  They also had a lot of helmets. They had one section dedicated to wild fires.  They had a children's area and they even put on special programs for children. We got back to the motor home about 5:00 PM, fed Snoopy and then headed out for dinner.  We went west on the light rail to Mill Street in Tempe.  There are a lot of shops and eating places on Mill Street.  We decided on the Rula Bula Irish Pub. We both had fish and chips.  Cathy had a draft Smithwick's and I had a draft Harp.  It was extremely noisy, but the food and beer were good.  I think most of the customers were ASU students.  You can still see the mill and elevator at the end of the street. When we left the pub we went to the light rail station and got on the east bound platform.  Some one yelled across and asked if we were going east.  When we told him yes, he said that the train was going to load from the west bound platform.  When we got over to that platform, we found out that there had been an accident on the east bound tracks.  We got back to the motor home about 10:00 PM.
