Spring flowers

 This is a cactus that is near the outgoing gate at our development.  This is the most blooms that we have ever seen on it.  They bloom for one day and disappear.
When we stopped for a drink on our bike ride this morning it was under this palo verde tree with beautiful blooms.

Happy Birthday Andy

 We celebrated Andy's birthday today.  The day started out with the children's choir performing at each service.  Then it was lunch at Mom's and dinner at our house with the kids and grandkids.
The girls each made Granddaddy special cards.

8 mile Cathedral Mountain hike

On Thursday, we took a new hike (the Highline Trail) which when connected with other trails completely circles Cathedral Mountain.  This is a very unusal view which can only be seen from this trail.  Even Reilly was tired after this one.

Wednesday Mescal mountain hike

 At the top of Mescal mountain there are indian ruins and the remains of a pit house.
 This is the view from "Grandma's Cave" at the top.

Still cloudy and cold today but had a great loop hike up Mescal Canyon.  It should be warmer tomorrow.

Day 1 Sedona

We arrived in Sedona to some rain and heavy winds.  Did not stop our hike but glad to get back to the room in the afternoon.

Easter Sunday

. Audrey, Marin and Sophie had the traditional Easter Egg hunt in the back yard before dinner.  The highlight of the girls day was the later hunt for the confetti eggs in the front yard and the chance to crack them on one of the Dad's or Granddad's head.
