What to do with visiting relatives in Tucson during the holiday season
Posted on November 28th, 2009 No comments
Luckily, Tucson is abundant with things to do and places to visit. Many of which are not apparent to people who live here, as they do not do ‘touristy’ things on a regular basis. I’ve taken a few day trips recently myself, and have greatly enjoyed it! A few weeks ago, I went to the De Grazia Gallery in the Sun. I’ll be happy to show you the local real estate offerings, as that is my specialty. Happy trails & happy holidays to you & your family!

Beautiful Autumn Sunset in Tucson
Posted on October 5th, 2009 No commentsIf one is a regular Tucson sunset watcher, as I am, the difference during last night’s sunset was palpable, and could be sensed and felt with each changing color, each fading moment of daylight. Summer sunsets in the desert have a lot of purple in them. Fall and winter sunsets are more orangy. This sunset informed me of a changing of the seasons, and I believe it is safe to declare that it’s official- autumn has arrived in Tucson!

Is this Tucson in June?
Posted on June 5th, 2009 No comments
A woman at the swim meet told me that she heard that this was an El Nino year. If that’s true, then we should expect a wetter than normal rainfall. Perhaps that explains the rain we had in late May? Whatever it is, we are thankful for it here in the normally arid Tucson desert. By the way, the kids had a great time at the swim meet. That’s one of the things I love about Skyline Bel Air is the swim team, as it keeps the kids busy doing something constructive in the summer.

A Rainy Afternoon at Tohono Chul Park
Posted on April 15th, 2009 No comments
Rain in our Tucson desert is often a site to behold. I especially enjoy the monsoon season, but sometimes, it’s the surprise rains- like those April showers, that amaze and delight unsuspecting Tucsonans. It’s not often that I am in the right place at the right time to experience the splendor of our desert rain. Last Saturday, I went to a wedding at Tohono Chul Park, a desert botanical garden of sort on Tucson’s Northwest side.
