Our bags are packed, we’re ready to go….to our cabin!

It is quite an endeavor to pack up all we will need until November and move to our “summer home.”

As Owen says, “You guys are reverse snow birds.  When it’s hot in the spring, you go north.”  He’s right, we’re headed north to our cabin in the Arizona mountains where it is cool enough to enjoy the outdoors and go camping on the Mogollon Rim whenever we want ALL SUMMER LONG!


Our last morning at Nuestra Casa we rode our new electric trikes on the golf paths behind our home and took this photo as the sun was rising.  It was a glorious bike ride!


It’s gotten warm enough (97 degrees) that the flowers and cacti in our yard in Leisure World are blossoming.








The day before we left for the cabin we found a bird sitting on nine little eggs….nestled inside a pot on our back patio.  She looked well protected by all the thorns on the cacti surrounding her.  We wish that we would be there to welcome her babies into the world. 

Happy nesting little mama!



We (both trucks and all of our belongings that we’ll need for the next six months) made it safely to our cozy cabin in the mountains.  

It will take us several days to unpack, but it feels like home to us as we sit on our back deck and wait for the elk to come by and welcome us home.

Just as I finished writing this, a small herd of elk came by and said, “Welcome home!"
