Maricopa

Michael, Abby, and I visited my cousin Carol at her lovely home in Maricopa, Az. For two days this week. She has a beautiful three bedroom home in a suburb of Maricopa. Her pool is a true oasis and we enjoyed sitting outside visiting and getting reconnected. It seems that time and distance will not affect a special relationship and it seemed like we had been together yesterday!

Tucson, January to March 2014

After a rush trip to avoid weather, we arrived in Tucson on Jan 1, at the Voyager RV Park and got settled into our site. Sadly we have no palm tree on site but we are close to the dog park and not too far from the pool and other amenities. This winter we both decided to do more physical activity and get involved in park stuff. So far it has worked out well and we both are getting involved. Mike is exercising at the gym and I am doing deep water exercise three days a week. I have been learning about quilting and made a small lap quilt that turned out OK. I am going to make a crazy quilt for a grand kid that I learned about in a class. It is enjoyable and great to se a finished product. Our trailer is still comfortable and we have even entertained Dominick and Brittany for a few days. And had lots of fun! We have seen many interesting things in Tucson this year, including the Reid Park Zoo, Old Tucson, the Sonran Desert Museum, the Pima Air and Space Museum, night viewing at the Kitty Peak observatory, the Gem Show, the Tubac Artisan show, Gordon Lightfoot and Danu in concert at the Fox theatre, and an amazing quilt show at the Convention Centre.
