Tucson

Arrived in Tucson just a little over 24 hours ago.  Sitting here under the awning in SHORTS and T-shirt with bare feet and white legs.  AHHHHH, this is what we came for.  Went riding this morning in 40-50 degree weather turned to almost 75 within a couple of hours.  Saw every kind of cactus on the planet I think.  It is like another planet here, vegetation wise.  Beautiful.  Everything here is sporting prickers of varying sizes so you don't want to stick your hand out to touch anything while out riding, even the trees.  You carry a comb and pliers with you to pull the stickers out of you or your horse.  But we are surrounded with mountains.

This is the Catalina State Park about 3 mile horseback ride from here.
