We met a couple from Humboldt County/Northern Cal at Catalina State Park and have been hanging out with them. I've included some photos of the motley looking crew when we dressed up to go to lunch at Pocas Cosas in Tucson. They were scheduled to participate in an art fair last Saturday to sell their jewelry and art. The wind was so bad we were literally hanging on the tent poles with our full weight to hold them in place (this in addition to the cement blocks we had attached the ropes to). We lasted until about 1 p.m., called it quits and went out for lunch at just one more of the many Mexican restaurants.
We've used up our allotted 14 days at Catalina Park and are moving on to Gilbert Ray Park next to Suguaro Natl. and the Desert Museum. We want to do more hiking in that area and then move on to Tubac. We haven't put on a lot of miles and are realizing we only have about 5 more weeks.....still hoping to get to southern new Mexico.
There is a huge learning curve when it comes to using laundromats! Consult us first if you ever have the opportunity to use one.
We had a few drops of rain last night (first rainfall in Tucson this year and they are concerned about the spring blooms). A dusting of snow in the mountains that we could see first thing this morning. Cleared out the smog and today is a beautiful crystal clear day. Lots to do in Tucson but we are so glad we live in Kayenta rather than here.
