@Grateful Kae- it really is cool – domestic, so not that far or logistically difficult as a trip, but feels different.

@Kat – yep, I love it when it all works out like that.

@Elisabeth – oh yes there are definitely some non-charmed trips in my life. But this one went amazingly well – and I am aware of that charmed-ness!

@Gillian – the desert wildflowers were pretty special – all so different looking.

Love it!

Next time you are in Phoenix, check out the Cosanti Bell Foundry in Paradise Valley, and the Musical Instrument Museum. It is a beautiful building with an equally fine collection, wonderfully arranged and displayed.

Blooming cactus and desert wildflowers are lovely. We make a visit there most years since we are in Phoenix for a week pretty much every year.

Smooth flights! Time with friends! Engaging local experiences! Successful work events!
