April 11-15

Our friends, Gary and Carrie, flew in from Gig Harbor, WA Thursday evening. Friday we spent the morning at the Tucson Botanical Gardens. I especially enjoyed The Butterfly and Orchid Pavilion and the Washed Ashore exhibit. https://tucsonbotanical.org/
After a surprisingly good breakfast at Frank's restaurant, the blueberry pancakes were delicious,

we headed up to Mt Lemmon. It was a beautiful drive on a winding road and a great way to beat the heat.
We hiked the Aspen Trail and Marshall Gulch Loop Trail. The beginning of the trail followed a clear cold stream before gaining elevation. We were treated to amazing views and lots of wind at the top. Thanks Carrie! You chose two winners out of the list of activities I sent you.
Saturday we spent a leisurely day playing pickleball followed by lunch at the Robson Ranch Grill then hanging out at our patio.
Departure day came too soon. After morning pickleball and a bite to eat we bid our friends farewell. What a wonderful weekend!Baca lagi
