I promised to show a photo of the “ghost town” where we waited out the storm yesterday.

I’ve taken a lot of interesting pictures today, but it’s too late to get them off my camera and post them. Mostly, I just wanted to let you know where we are tonight and that we are still alive! Continue reading
There’s snow in them thar hills: Part 2
I’m sitting on hold with the IRS, so I thought this would be a good time to write about what Mark and I did on Saturday. We took a day trip up to Mount Lemmon which looks like it’s practically in our back yard but took forever to get to by road. Continue reading
There’s snow in them thar hills!
Today was sunny without a cloud in the sky. It was still cool, but by Tuesday we’re supposed to be back up in the 70s. I took this picture from our “backyard” before all the snow melts: Continue reading
Snow? In Tucson?!

Ever since then, he’s been wanting to go on a bike ride with me. Continue reading

We did something this morning we haven’t particularly done before. We actually planned to leave late! Continue reading
From Hood River, OR
So close and yet so far! It was after dark when we arrived in Hood River. As soon as we entered the Gorge, we ran into strong winds. Mark was exhausted by the time we got here. Continue reading
From Missoula, MT
We woke up this morning to a bright, blue sky. What a beautiful way to start the day! Mark checked the weather report online and discovered that even if we had taken the southern route, we would have run into snow storms. What’s more, we got out of Wisconsin before this storm was expected to drop three inches of snow there! Continue reading
