Where it's 97 degrees! and where everyone likes to assure you: "but it's a DRY heat". 😊 We stayed with friends Kerri and Carter and their sons Josh and Chase. Echo enjoyed the pool...until Paul threw him in...and we relaxed. There were some skiddish moments, like when we saw our first rattle snake, or when Kerri told us about all the scorpions that are on the sidewalks, the rocks, and even used to pop up in the bathrooms.

One day we went to the Saguaro National Forest. Saguaros are the type of cactus that predominantly grow there, and all of the cacti were in bloom. Luckily, we didn't see any snakes or other creepy crawlies, only a few bunnies and lizards.

At night we'd hang out and play ping pong and pool with the boys, which was awesome. Especially since they were the ping pong masters of the universe, and Paul spent every waking moment trying to figure out how to return their volleys...or avoid getting whacked with the ball when they were spiking it right at him. 😊. It was an awesome stop; we basked in the sun (well, Danielle lathered on sunscreen first) and enjoyed the weather. No rain or snow here!
