Flying to Tucson- View of Tucson from the air

The mountains near Tucson- much like CA, there can be snow up there when it's HOT down below

Our Southwest Airlines wing...

not very 'green' down there!

Pilot tells us it's about 80 degrees when we land

some of the foothills neighborhoods

a large resort

Almost at the point of landing....

 And we land safely and are greeted at airport by mom and pop- immediately go home to homemade soup!

My mom put up a little tree

The grapefruit tree in her back yard

Her windowsill collection of carollers

And here we start to get out the makins' of the day long cooking event....next blog entry!

Stay tuned....you're NOT gonna want to miss the baking!!
