Sunday at Dad's

CAN'T GO ANY FURTHER WITHOUT A
SUNDAY AT DAD'S POST!  THIS WAS FROM
A COUPLE WEEKS AGO I BELIEVE.  THEY ARE
NOW OUT OF TOWN AND CAMPING THEIR
WAY TO GRANDMA'S .

FRESH PICO DE GALLO 
AND GUACAMOLE TO START.

BEAUTIFUL DAY OUT

ALL OF THEIR PRICKLY PEARS WERE 
BLOOMING AS WELL AS THE CHOLLA CACTI .
I TOOK A TON OF PICTURES AND SINCE YOU
LIKED THEM SO MUCH ON FACEBOOK  ,
BUNNYBANANA , I WILL INCLUDE THEM ALL
HERE .  BRACE YOURSELF THOUGH , IT'S A LOT.

I DID THIS MASH UP SO YOU CAN CLEARLY
SEE THE DIFFERENT SHADES OF COLORS .
FROM YELLOW TO ORANGE AND 
EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN.























LINDA HAS A GARDEN TOO!! 
SHE'S GROWING CORN, SWEET PEAS, AND
SUNFLOWERS, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY
WHICH I PROBABLY DO NOT.

DAD GRILLED CHICKEN...

AND ASPARAGUS WHICH IS A FAV OF MINE .


AND OF COURSE THERE WAS PIE .


WHILE SNAPPING A SHOT OF THE SUNSET
I SAW THIS HUGE BLACK SNAKE!!!!

IT WASN'T POISONOUS BUT IT WAS BIG
ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU SQUIRM.

Hiking With Mom- Sutherland Trail

AS YOU KNOW BUNNYBANANA , ORIN AND SHEA CAME
TO VISIT TUCSON RECENTLY.  I HAVE A COUPLE OF ORIN'S
SHOWS PENDING IN MY BLOG QUEUE BUT FOR SOME REASON
BLOGGER WON'T LET ME UPLOAD VIDEOS RIGHT NOW. 
I AM GIVING IT A FEW DAYS AND HOPING IT
WILL CORRECT ITSELF.

IN THE MEANTIME I AM MOVING ON WITH POSTS THAT
DON'T HAVE ANY VIDEOS ATTACHED TO THEM.

WHICH INCLUDES LOTS OF GARDENING AND HIKING!!

THIS TIME WE DID THE SUTHERLAND
TRAIL IN CATALINA STATE PARK.

SHEA AND JAMES CAME WITH ME
AND MOM FOR THIS HIKE !!!


WE WERE LOOKING FOR FLOWERS BUT ALL
I FOUND WERE THESE THISTLES.  IT WAS STILL A
WEEK OR TWO EARLY FOR FLOWERS ON CACTI .

HERE'S A FEW "SO GORGEOUS IT'S BORING" PICS-






WE SAW A CUTE LITTLE HORNY TOAD!!!
THE MOST WILDLIFE WE'VE ENCOUNTERED
SO FAR OTHER THAN LIZARDS EVERYWHERE .

IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL DAY OUT THAT DAY,
BUT NOW IT IS GETTING HOTTTTT OUT.
ME AND MOM ARE STILL GOING TO BE HIKING
BUT WE ARE LEAVING EARLIER AND EARLIER
TO KEEP UP WITH THE RISING TEMPS .

Ajia's Gospel Brunch

THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY OVERDUE POST.
THE SECOND SATURDAY OF APRIL WE ATTENDED
AJIA'S GOSPEL BRUNCH ONCE AGAIN.

IT REALLY IS THE BEST CHURCH SERMON
YOU'LL HEAR IN TUCSON ON A SUNDAY.

THIS TIME I TALKED LINDA INTO JOINING ME
AND MEADOW, AND SHE BROUGHT HER FRIEND
GERI.  LINDA WORE THIS HAMBURGER HAT
AND GERI WORK A VIKING AND BRAIDS HAT.
LINDA SAID SHE WAS SICK OF WEARING CHURCH
HATS IN HER LIFE AND HEY , CAN YOU BLAME HER ?

I AM ALWAYS DYING TO GET GLAMOR SHOTS
OF THE GIRLS BUT THEY ARE SINGING AND 
DANCING AROUND SO IT IS HARD TO DO.
HERE'S MY PHOTO REEL -


CHINA COLLINS
HIGH ENERGY FIERCENESS








TORI STEELE
EVER GLAMOUROUS
 
(I THINK SHE LIVES IN PHOENIX
AND COMES DOWN TO DO IT.  AJIA
ALSO DOES GOSPEL BRUNCH IN 
PHOENIX ONCE A MONTH.)








MS. AJIA HERSELF
THE TRIPLE THREAT






ALL THREE LADIES TOGETHER FOR A FINALE





AND THE SHOES COME OFF!!!



AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION-
IT'S JUST A LITTLE HOLY WATER.....





A KISS LEFT FROM ONE OF THE GIRLS ON 
MEADOW'S ARM.  (I THINK IT WAS CHINA.)

XOXOXOXO
