I arrived in Tucson this afternoon. Jane picked me up from the airport and zipped me over to her and Gordon’s lovely house. It’s great to be here and great to see Jane and Gordon! We took a beautiful hike up the Tumamoc Trail under cloudy skies around 5 pm. We then came home and had a wonderful dinner and sat in the court yard enjoying the quiet desert evening. I am off to bed now. I am here leading a two day retreat for Jane and her friends starting tomorrow! Here are photos from this evening’s hike:

Barrel Cactus
A saguaro cactus puts out its first "arm" at 60 years of age! This guy's been around for a while.
