Richmond to Phoenix, Day 15, Part 2 Tucson to Phoenix


January 11, 2012


Arriving in Phoenix,  our final destination



Passing the airport now!



Time to call Laurel!


Next stop, the Hinrichsen home!

Better straighten my socks.
 (Notice how well they match my shirt and pants!)



The kids are in school, not a big greeting party this time!

Lovely, inviting pool, but it's a little cold for swimming yet
 

What a welcoming patio!



 Laurel's getting the driveway all cleaned off for us!


 This is where we'll stay for a month.




There seems to be plenty of room!
 



All set now!  The end of the road trip.
Maybe I'll get some Phoenix pictures posted.



Ain't it grand
to be able to take our home with us
wherever we go? 

 

Even 2,500 miles from Richmond!

I-10 Tucson to Phoenix


Images from the highway,




Leaving the area of Davis Monthan AFB


They have some lovely artwork/mosaics on the overpasses in Arizona!


Now, here's something different.  A BLACK train!



I love these socks, they go with all my clothes!
That is, all my blue and burgundy clothes, especially!
They make me feel happy!  Coordinated!



Wow!  We're getting there, at last!  Only 94 miles!!!


Interested in a little SMOG?
Check out the visibility, or lack thereof!


Of course we have to get just one more shot of a train...
...just one more.   One last shot!  Right?



 The next stop is our final destination,
the Hinrichsen residence.

I'd better get busy knitting!

The end of another lovely day


And, tomorrow  we leave for Phoenix

It's not very far, only a couple of hours.
We don't want to get there too early,
so we'll probably stop for a long lunch break.

There will be a few posts from the highway, just pictures.


I will have to get busy knitting!!!
No more playing on the iPad.   (Ya think?)
