On Tuesday, we made the 6 hour drive from Palm Desert, CA to Tucson, AZ. We were last in Tucson on Feb. 18th when we dropped off Colleen and Josh’s plants to their new home. As is their custom, in an incredibly short period of time they have moved in and made the place look great and like they’ve been there for years. They have a beautiful view from their backyard…..

We’re staying for 8 nights at the Inn at Rancho Merlita (http://ranchomerlita.com/) which is an amazing bed and breakfast in a very peaceful setting…..

This week has been kind of a “work week” for Greg and Colleen….but we’ve enjoyed great meals together, have gone on great hikes (see Sabino Canyon photo below), visited the San Xavier Mission (see below) and even managed to find the perfect set of chimineas (one small, one large)! Tomorrow we’re hiking on Mt. Lemmon so it should be a great day!
