Do you like to ride in the car this much?

Just in case anyone was wondering if our dogs mind riding in the car.

I'm a modern woman!

I finally entered the modern era! I have a digital camera. Brian's been bugging me to get one, but I think that they're too expensive and newer/better ones keep coming out all the time. How do you keep up? Here's some pictures taken with my new camera. O.K., so I still have a ways to go, but I'm getting there. These pictures are from Saguaro Nat'l Park East. The saguaro were blooming, as well as other cacti. Beautiful!

Weekend trip

We got 7 days off in a row! We went to Sedona, AZ first. One of the first things we saw was Montezuma's castle. Approximately 1100 - 1300 A.D. some Indians built this house into the side of a cliff. Wow! We spent that night in Flagstaff. The next day we went to Page, AZ to see Antelope Canyon. Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon. The light shines down through and it's gorgeous (that's us in the slot canyon). The next day we went to Chinle, AZ to see Canyon de Chelly (pronounced, "Shay"). In this canyon, there are about 300 of these Indian dwellings built up into the side of cliffs. It's amazing that they built these houses way up into cliffs. Currently, Navajo still live down inside of these canyons, but not in the houses in the cliffs. The last picture is just a picture of the canyon. The scenery is awesome. We had such a good time this weekend that we called our recruiter. We had a job in Flagstaff the next day! We're so excited and grateful! We end our job here next week and then head there.

Javelinas are . . .

pig-like animals (rodents) that run wild here in southern Arizona. Several of our co-workers say that the see them in their back yards. They're not dangerous unless they're cornered.
