Hike at Catalina State Park

On Tuesday we enjoyed a hike at Catalina State Park. It was sunny and very windy. There were plenty of Saguaro cacti to be seen. After the hike we had lunch at In-N-Out Burger and then saw the movie Wild about hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. - Nancy

Guests from Hawaii


We stopped in Phoenix on the way back from LA and got Tasha and Rendall when they arrived from Hawaii. A trip and short hike in Sabino Canyon was taken and followed by a picnic lunch. The canyon was green due to much needed rain. - Nancy

Family Gathering in Los Angeles

                 
Christian - 4 mos.
I drove Dad and Ramona from Tucson to my nephew's house in the Woodland Hill area in West L.A. It was a long day's drive. I think I need to get a chauffeur's uniform and hat. I think of the movie Driving Miss Daisy these days. I've driven more in the last two months than I have for many years.
All of my brother Ray's family is here to have an early Christmas together. The hit of the gathering is Christian Mahlon Willits, 4 months old, and the son of David and Leidi. - Nancy
