Since We Landed In Arizona This Year
The first week of January found us heading west (through/in between) the winter storms across Oklahoma, Texas & New Mexaco. Lucked out with just a little rain.

Since then we have taken a couple of trips of interest. We still have not fully explored the things to see in Southeastern Arizona. So, we went to Tombstone. Now everyone should go to Tombstone once, and actually that will probably be enough. Here are a couple of pictures just to tempt you..JPG)

A week or so later we went to a state park south of Tempe called Boyce Thompson Arboretium. It is referred to as an Arizona oasis. It is the oldest and largest botanical garden in the state with 3200 different desert plans on 323 acres. Although there is always something in bloom, we want to return later in the spring when much more will be showing color.
On Sunday, February 7th, we went to the local county fair grounds to see the Southern Arizona Gourd festival. It is amazing what artists can do with gourds. They carve, woodburn, paint & add media (mixed media) to make incredible pieces of art. Bob took lots of picftures a couple included here.

Then, friends from California came to see us and they wanted to take us to see the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. It was an all day trip and lots of walking but worth every minute. We saw wolves, bob cats, havelinas and road runners to list just a few of the animals that live in the museum. There were lots of cactus in the gardens and a hummingbird aviary..JPG)

During the month of March we will again work at Spring Training of the Los Angeles Angels at Anaheim located at the Tempe Diablo Stadium in Tempe, AZ. So unless there is something out of the ordinary, we will blog again when we get to California in April.
Life is Good!
Bob and Diana
