We've spent a couple of weeks in Tucson. We stayed at one of the highest rated Military Campgrounds, Davis Monthan AFB. It is very nice and we both enjoyed our stay there.
While in Tucson, we did a lot of everyday chores and planning. Two notable events were visits with family and a day trip to Saguaro National. We got to visit with our niece, Jill and her husband, Dean. They met us for dinner in old downtown Tucson to celebrate Alex's 60th birthday! We had a great time with them. Alex is coming to terms with his new decade.
Our drive through Saguaro National Park had a purpose. We were collecting information and pictures for our friends in Japan, Kenji and Junco. They wanted us to send something interesting to their grandaughter, Moeka. We went to the park's visitor center to get some of their printed material and we bought post cards and other items to send along. We are hoping she can share all of this with her classmates. We took about 100 pictures while we were there. Unfortunately, our computer blew up with smoke pouring out. So that delayed sending out pictures to Moeka. We were able to save our hard drive from the old computer and had some geeks transfer all the info. So, now we've sent the Picasa album to her. We thought you might like to take a look. If you are ever in the Tucson area, you should try to take a drive through this beautiful park.
