Yes, we got to Tucson and I just quit blogging. Time to get caught up as much as possible. Christmas at Shannon's was wonderful. All the Portland area family was there. Izzy got heaps of fun gifts and we all had fun watching.
Winter at Desert Trails is a very busy time with biking, hiking, exercizing, dances, and entertainments. Great time with friends made over the last 4 years. A favorite hike was Cochise Stronghold.
Kathy and Bill came to visit with friends Greg & Barb. Fun long weekend at Rancho Vistoso. Visited the DeGrazia home and Gallery, Mission San Xavier del Bac, and Old Tucson Studios.
This year John and I did some exploring at the University of Arizona. We took a campus tour and attended a lecture series at the University of Arizona on Living Beyond 100 which was very interesting. Kirsten and I volunteered at the Tucson Festival of Books (400 authors, 2000 volunteers, 100,000 attending). What a cool event with kids area, science area, culinary, writers workshop, authors round tables. We saw Diana Gabaldon, Terry Books, JA Jance, T Jefferson Parker. Super event.
