Oh, I hope so!

We're going up to Cottonwood over the weekend - that's across the Verde River from Sedona.

We're taking Piper to meet her year old cousin...certainly hope the nice weather is coming this way...it'll let them get outside to play.

Spring arrived... on cue!! Yesterday morning the birdies outside my window started singin' they heads off at dawn. Can't remember hearing a peep for a long time before that.

Wisteria is starting to bloom, daffodils everywhere and the camellia bushes are dropping their flowers.

I do not want to be indoors in the daytime!!

That was the easy part. The porpoising (up and down) was a real thrill. 8^)

Aloha night Owl!

Forgetfulness is a bad habit....but conversely, a good memory isn't all it's touted to be and can lead to trouble.

Worked out OK that time though.
