The weather has cooled down a bit. We had 2 days of rain which the locals said was much needed. Our only hike was not very long, but it was very pretty. 
The desert is beautiful after it rains. I’m hoping to see some wildlife, especially a javelina. So far, only some birds and a tiny lizard.
We drove through Saguaro National Park on the west side. It’s a vast expanse of desert that includes a mountain forest. 
There are lots of “snowbirds” here in Arizona. One of the things snowbirds do in the winter is play golf. I’ve been feeling guilty when I am on the golf course. Aren’t I supposed to be working? I’m not ready to retire. 
Terry is loving this retired life. He’s always smiling. I’m happy about that☺️.
