Th-Th-Th-That's All Folks

We finished our national tour yesterday, arriving at the home of our friends, Jim and Donna Simpson, in the foothills of Tucson, Az. They have two children, Christina who's a freshman at the U of A in town, and Jesse who's a freshman at Catalina HS in town. Christina has a boyfriend, Sonny who is also preparing to start college and is a computer wiz. They just completed their new home, which is beautiful and set in the hills with views of the city and the mountains. Jimmy and Donna designed and laid out the house and the attention to detail shows. It includes an outdoor pool and basketball court among other amenities.
Our trip has been great and although we didn't see everything, we saw a great deal. Our country is really amazing and beautiful in a physical sense and most people we talked to are optomistic and upbeat about the future. There are still a lot of can-do people out there who think the way our pioneering ancestors did and don't expect the gov'ment to fix all their problems.
We hope this blog was entertaining and hope you enjoyed it. We certainly enjoyed doing it and enjoyed the feedback we received.
We plan on spending the winter in Tucson and perhaps settling here. OUR BEST TO ALL.
