Last week James, Jill, and Hugh visited us for six days from Houston. In addition to taking in sites around Tucson,
we went north to Sedona, Flagstaff, and The Grand Canyon. Here are a few images from the Sedona area.

There once was a feisty little dog
whose name was Fox.
He demanded 100 percent from
his human friend, Jill.
In the beginning of their relationship
he was able to get what he wanted,
he needed her and she needed him.
Fox was her baby and he knew it.
Over time Fox learned to tolerate
others as long as Jill was around,
remaining very jealous of her attention.
Then James came on the scene.
Like his human friends, over time
he got gray, hard of hearing and
and learning to live with vision lose.
Even so, Jill give him life till the end.
(Fox died May 11, 2019 at the age of 22.)

A Day in the West Jeep Tour (June 15, 2016) Images by kenne
During our recent brief stay in Sedona, Jill, James, Joy and I went on a two hour jeep tour behind Thunder Mountain. I used James as an excuse to finally get Joy out on a back-country jeep tour. Considering that Joy was still recovering from surgery, she did quite well.

How much longer before we will be there?
I’m not having fun! I’m tired! I’m hunger! Let’s stop now!
This is not where I wanted to eat! I don’t like the food!
I will disrupt others trying to eat. Time for a selfie.

A Mother’s Day Thank You Card From Mom To Justin And Jill — Image by kenne
The day before flying to Ontario, CA to spend a few days with her mother and sisters, Joy received flowers from Justin and Jill. They are beautiful and it became my responsibility to keep them that way while she was in southern California. Additional, I was asked to take a photo of the flowers and send a thank you response to Justin and Jill.

This past weekend we had some of our family visiting. The day started off with a hike down along the Tanque Verde Wash, followed by walking through the St. Phillip’s Farmers Market, then a drive along scenic Hwy 83 to the Arizona wine country where we attended the Elgin Wine Festival.

Jill shared this video with the note: “Looks like we’re going to have to have ‘the talk’ with James a little sooner than I planned!!! Watch the video, and you’ll see what I mean.”

James and Jill arrived last Wednesday for a ten day visit. Four of the days will be in southern California, which is where they are now. So, I’ve put together a video of clips and uploaded 46 photos to Flickr. Enjoy!
