Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum

The first day of our Arizona trip included a trip to the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in the Saguaro National Park. It was a beautiful day, sunny and warm. The saguaro cactuses are amazing - it looked like green poles up and down the mountains.




We loved the desert museum. My favorite part was the hummingbird enclosure. You got to walk around inside the hummingbird's enclosure with them flying all around you. I even saw a hummingbird's nest with a baby there. Incredible!



Anyone who gets a chance to go to Tucson should go to the desert museum. It's wonderful! As we were leaving the museum, I noticed this weird sign. I thought at first it was a joke - who would feed a coyote? But someone must have for there to be a sign!

Arizona Trip

We just got back from a quick trip to Mom and Dad's condo in Tucson, Arizona. Boy was it a nice change of pace weather wise. Here is what we left behind in Wisconsin:



And here is what we got in Arizona:


It was a nice 85 average with plenty of sun. I almost cried when we stepped off the plane on the way back to 32 degrees again. Sigh. We definitely need more time there on the next trip.

I will put up more pictures as I sort them out over the next few days.
