of new pictures. Wow, we've been here nearly two months. Work is finally starting to feel more routine, and we are able to find our way around a little better. The temps have started to cool just a little, and even though it still gets bloody hot in the middle of the day, the mornings and evenings are often very comfortable and sometimes even cool. We haven't been doing a whole lot to speak of, but take a look at the pictures to see some stuff we have done in the past 2 weeks.
On Wednesday our friend, Mindy, from work took us 1hr. and 45 min. southeast of Tucson to her hometown of Willcox, to pick apples...that's right, some real fall action, though it doesn't feel a bit like fall to us. And then on the way back we saw this nasty diamond back rattler on the road, our first wild snake sighting. Uck!
Last week we went on a 2 day trip to Sedona, AZ, the land of the red rocks, about 4 hours north of us. It was breathtakingly beautiful, though very touristy. We also went to this little town Jerome, which was an old mining ghost town until about 15 years ago when artists and hippies started turning into a funky, artsy place to visit. It is built up into a steep mountainside and has great views. When you walk around you see nearly half the buildings are still falling down and uninhabited. Very cool place.
And last but not least, we tortured our beloved furry friends by putting this sweater on them. They were hysterical.
Ok, everyone, that's all for now. Come visit us!!! We miss you!
