Minnesota Escapees

It’s been 2 weeks again since we last updated the blog.  Dang, how time flies! 

This title comes from all the visitors we have had from Minnesota recently.  Paige’s Mom, Joyce, left to return to Minnesota yesterday morning.  We spent a lot of time with her during her 3-week visit.  We went to Queen Creek for olive oil, Ceretta’s for candy, and visited many restaurants.  She also was a great observer while we painted the overhang on the patio.  Sounds like the weather in Duluth is finally warming slightly so she timed her visit south well.  Here she is with her brother, Phil:
 
 

 
 
On Wednesday night, Paige’s sister and her friend, Pam and Ron, arrived for a visit.  We went to the Botanical Gardens to see the Chihuly glass exhibit yesterday.  We had seen this exhibit 2 years ago also.  Very beautiful, distinctive works staged throughout the gardens.
 


 
We’ll be winding up our visit in Phoenix during the next 2 weeks by getting our taxes done, taking a driving class with our new motorhome, getting warranty work done on the new motorhome in Mesa, and trying to visit a few friends.  Then we will be on the road to Oklahoma for our next Nomads project.  When that is completed in mid-April we will assess the snow situation in Minnesota.  When the snow has melted at the cabin, we’ll head up there.  Given the terrible winter Minnesota has had, we don’t have high hopes that we’ll get up there before early May.
