We began day 6 with more craziness. After we were showered and dressed, our room phone rang again with more angry hang-up calls. I guess the same "neighbor" thought he was waking us up. He was about an hour late for that as the Gattis start the day early when on vacation! When you think of olive oil, you think of Italy or maybe Greece. However, as it turns out, it's produced in Arizona too. We began our day with a tour of the Queen Creek Olive Mill. They grow their own olives and press them into delicious olive oil. Our tour guide, Wolfgang, taught us all the intricacies of oil making and tasting. It was a lot of fun. We then headed up some precarious roads to Canyon Lake for a steamboat ride before heading back down to Scottsdale to have dinner at a restaurant whose other location we had previously enjoyed in Socorro, New Mexico. We ended the evening with the "neighbor" pounding on our hotel room door and running away. I may not be young anymore, but I managed to chase him down the hall and corner him in an elevator! That was followed by him following me back to the room and trying to push his way in. We declined to call Tempe Police just because it might have meant travelling back to Arizona to testify if they arrested him. We let hotel security deal with it and now we have a fun story to tell!
