The weather was the big news today. We left Albuquerque at 10:15 this morning and the temperature was 56°. We had planned to head for Falcon, Colorado today and skirt around Denver, but when we checked the forecast for both locations, Denver was at least going to be above freezing tonight. At one point today, we almost despaired of getting here. Continue reading
We left Tucson, AZ — after having gotten air in the RV tires and gas in the pickup — around 10:45 this morning. The temperature was 78°. It has not been one of our better days… Continue reading
In Acts 16: 6-8, we read of Paul trying to go to a couple places on his second missionary journey, but the Spirit wouldn’t allow him to go. Perhaps that’s what happened here today. Continue reading
Mark’s last day at work was last Saturday and mine was today. Mark has been doing things to the RV to prepare for our trip to the frozen north. He resealed the roof, patched leaks, caulked, put our new (to us) topper over the bedroom slide out, and began packing things back into the basement of the RV. Continue reading
The one thing my father has most wanted Mark and I to see before we leave Tucson (the town, not the dog) is the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum.

I finally convinced Mark to go on an outing with me yesterday. My father has described to me, several times, a place he would like us to visit before we leave here and we started out to go there, but we got sidetracked when we stopped at Old Tucson on the way… Continue reading
It’s amazing the kinds of things you can find at the Tractor Supply Co. Right now, they have their baby chicks, but we went today for a different critter. It’s been a couple weeks since it’s been warm enough to give Tucson a bath, and I think she’s already outgrown the bin we got for washing her in. We have seen signs before that Tractor Supply Co has a dog wash, but we’ve never been able to find it until today. Continue reading
It doesn’t look like I’m going to have any grandchildren, so whenever I get to go to a baby shower, I take advantage of the opportunity. Continue reading
Judy, whom I call the president of my Wisconsin fan club, and her husband, David, live south of us about an hour’s drive during the winter. Today, Judy and David and Mark and I met in Tombstone for a fun afternoon. Continue reading
