A great time in Phoenix for Spring break 2019. We were able to spend time with the whole gang over the week with lots of fun activities - hiking, museums, train rides.
With all the rain here and in AZ there is a desert bloom going on - The first few pics. are from around SoCal. The next few from AZ.
On Monday, we went hiking through the Phoenix Sonoran Desert Preserve with GJ, Stacey, Connor and Ayden.
We took a really cool train ride (Verde Canyon Railroad) through the Verde Canyon area North of Phoenix, 2 hours out and 2 hours back. The views were great - featuring native flora and fauna, high-desert rock faces, vistas, and nearby caves with Indian ruins going back to 600 BC. The whole area is only accessible by this one rail line so it is well preserved. Nothing to do but watch the scenery roll by and take LOTS of pictures.
At the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) - which was really cool! Musical instruments from around the world including an electric guitar exhibit.
Ellie pulled out Darcy's haircrimper circa 1991!!!
At Greatgrandma's with Uncle Ernie. A fun day playing lawn games!
I had to fly to DC so I left everyone on Friday and on Saturday Darcy drove back with the girls but not before spending a fun 24 hours livin' the resort life in Palm Springs!!
So that is it. Now we grind out the last few weeks of the school year - only 38 more days of school!
