Saguaro National Park by Dave Procniack from the New Century Artist’s show at the library. Loved this one and Bob gave it to me for my birthday. Indeed, we are planning a southwest getaway next winter… six weeks in Las Vegas close to two of Bob’s children and their families; and for me, four hours to LA and Cully’s family. This winter was a big bummer for both of us. (Even though Bob insists he likes winter.) We can take George, have rented a house (Vacation Rental by Owner) and suddenly the long winter doesn’t seem so daunting.
I have missed the southwest…We have seen this park thanks to Bob’s friend Michael in Tucson who asked us to visit a couple of years ago. We will stop in Santa Fe on the way to Las Vegas or back to visit friends and family — and even Las Vegas itself (bizzaro place that it is) is close to wilderness areas and more desert.

Hope to see you when you come through Judy! Great to hear the news and I love this website of yours, much nicer than Facebook. Glad you are recovering from surgery and surrounded by all the love you deserve.
love, Julia
