Here Comes 2015

No grass has grown under our feet since last we came your way.  The holidays were wonderful – with lots of family and friends.

As the new year came upon us – we spent lots of time on the golf course once Gary’s new and improved knee was ready to go.  The 2015 World Championship Ski Races were in the US this year – Beaver Creek & Vail – so we were off to the races for 10 days in February to watch Ted Ligety storm down the mountain and bring home some  GOLD;-)

A day of skiing before the races begin.

A day of skiing before the races begin – We did NOT “do” The Birds of Prey run!

Shortly after our return from “the mountains” – we hit the desert of Tucson for more golf with friends.  But, while we were there some sight-seeing was also in order.  The San Xavier Mission (which E saw when she was a Girl Scout umpteen years ago) was on the list as was the Photography Museum at the UofA, where we had a fabulous time and got a lesson on the Hubble and its space exploration and pictures.

Next up was Spring Break with Deme at Canyon Lake in Magic.  We kayaked, explored and just plain played —

Lunch Break.

 

When we weren’t on the road or on the golf course, The Musical Instrument Museum took up a lot of E’s time as a volunteer and G kept the computer busy.

As the weather heats up here, it is about time for us to hit the road and even Magic is eager to get going.  So – we are off for our new adventures this summer in the West – Washington, Oregon and Utah.

See you soon from the road – E & G – ready for what comes our way;-)
