On Sunday I made a quick but beautiful 12-hour round trip to Houston. I believe that I spent more time in the air than I did on the ground. I really need to get some books to read on these long flights. Magazines and newspapers don’t have enough substance. I can burn through an issue of This Old House Magazine in less than an hour. Then what do you do? Look at SkyMall? It’s time to mend my relationship with the local library with a big fat $20 bill to payoff my late fees.

Friday evening we traveled down to Picacho Peak in near Tucson to spend some time with Candyce’s grandparents. Our crowning achievement was climbing to the top of the mountain on Saturday morning. The wildflowers were in fool bloom. We loved it. Take a look at the photos below.
