Only two weeks until Mini Magic heads east!  That means 14 days jammed full of activities;-)  Ten dinners/lunches with family and friends, two rounds of golf, a couple of hikes and all those last minute appointments with the dentist, doctors and most important manicurist and haircut.  Oh yes – AND a quick trip to Las Vegas for one of those 3-day volleyball tournaments with niece Demi – –

Go get it girl!  (And wake up Dad)

A much needed ‘parental cheering section’ bar break between matches.

We also got in one more trip to the Desert Botanical Garden Electric Show with a quick view of the late flowering cacti before dark.  This is really a fabulous light show orchestrated with music using the cacti as the canvas.  Stunning!!

The Continuous Crystal (this does not include any cacti).

The last hike with our new Vi friends took place at Apache Wash – with our destination a horned owls nest.  No disappointments here – –

Our last hike of the season (finally got G in a shot) took us to…

A pair of baby horned owls nested in a Saguaro.

Palm Sunday the family was together to say good-bye and to celebrate Easter and birthdays for G and Andrew.  A wonderful early dinner;-)

A birthday celebration for Gary and Andrew.

And so – we said good-bye to all in Scottsdale (until August).  Packed up Mini Magic and hit the road.  Next stop is New Mexico.  See you around the corner.

E & G ready to go
