Tucson Arizona 2013

Aubrey's early retirement was celebrated by joining friends in Tucson Arizona for 2 weeks. We packed a lot of sight-seeing in the 14 days we were there. The highlight of our trip was staying at a casita called Harvest Wind at Smokey Springs Ranch ( http://thecasitas.com/harvest_wind.htm ). What an amazing place! We explored as much of the Tucson area as we could but also enjoyed coming back to our little casita and watching the birds in the back yard. There are albums that contain photos of some of the places we visited.
