An old favorite Tohono Chul Park in Tucson Feb 13, 2014

We met friends Bonnie and Ray from Vancover for lunch at Tohono Chul's lovely restaurant.  It was a great visit.  They recommended a cruise to the Panama Canal which they completed in November. Add to the Bucket List.  They are very active travelers although, they are about 15 years older than us.  (We met them in 2011 when we stayed at OroValley.)

Then we were off to see what had changed in the park since we were here last year.

My favorite flower patch.  Wild flowers are blooming early because it has been so warm.

Cactus Garden plot.  Not much to love now, but wait for those incredilbe blooms.


Not too early for lizards.  Nice place to catch the warm sunshine.



There are many sculptures in the park.  These pictures are the new metal art scupltures featured this month.  This one is entitled Big Bang
