TIP

Just a simple tip for the photos - if you click on an individual photo it will enlarge.

Still excited about the gamecam!

Early in the morning a few days ago these two deer made their appearance for the camera!

TrailCam at it again

I haven't posted any photos from the trailcam for a while so I'll catch up.

Not a bad rack

My daily watering
Night time bunny

Coyotes!
If you look close enough you can see 5 javelinas
One is a small baby between the two prominent adults

Might be able to see the baby better here between the adults

Hope the coyotes don't see the bunnies!
Caught head on


Even a Gambel Quail
We've been moving it around the yard to try and see which animals travel in different areas and it has been very interesting as you can see.

Our friend, Glenn's visit







Our friend, Glenn, from Tacoma is 92 years young!










Dome at San Xavier - We've posted many pictures of the
church before so I won't add them here

He came to visit us for about a week in November from Washington state. Sadly he brought rain with him so for the first couple of days we didn't do very much but then we did manage to show him a bit of Tucson.

Love the outlines on the saquaro the sun makes

The Boneyard





More of the boneyard - I like the 'face' on this plane
Harrier at the Pima Air Museum

From San Xavier del Bac, to A Mountain, to Sabino Canyon and then on to the Pima Air Museum's tour of the boneyard at Davis Monthan Air Base. There are about 4,000 planes being stored at the moment and it is mind boggling. Michael and I have taken the tour before but each time we learn something new.

2011 All Souls Procession in Tucson








Michael with our friends, Dennis and Bonnie

What can I say?
















A family affair























Walking in the parade

Too weird





Our friends, Bonnie & Dennis, joined us this year for the All Souls Procession in Tucson. They had not seen the event before and were just as fascinated by it as we are each year. The route changed a bit this year but we walked most of it, then stopped and watched the rest of the parade go by before walking over to El Minuto. It was a new restaurant for our friends - unusual as they have been introducing us to restaurants and happy hours here in Tucson.
