Winter?....... or summer?



Dec. 30 Today was so hot, we
couldn't remember if it was summer
or winter-
so we went swimming-
and hiking (with our friends, Russ
and Liz from Canada. The friendly
man at the Y let us all in for free,
maybe because we were a bunch of
happy zealous Canadians, who knows. The kids loved it, we had the place practically to ourselves
except for the 2 old men in speedos who happened to do a 45
minute stretch routine in front of our very eyes. Oh well, anything goes at the Y.



Elena and Liam had a blast playing together
this week. She will miss him!








North Mountain reserve park near
Scottsdale is really beautiful. The hiking was
great for kids with nicely paved
paths. Dan made us wear our Peru shirts from his mom. (She just went there.) There was a brown family that was smiling at us real big so maybe they were from Peru, who knows. My shirt said (in Espanol)- someone who loves you very much bought you this shirt in Peru! Ha ha, the kids loved them. Thanks mom.
Thanks for visiting us and showing us a great time Russ and Liz. You guys are great, we will miss you!

wow! i am such a wimp in the cold! my baths are so hot that they leave my skin pink, i love, love love, hot water and you'd have to pay me pretty good money to get into cold water. we should hike sometime together with our families. my dad always took us hiking as kids and it's been too long since we've been.
