Childhood friend comes to visit from Michigan




Sandy and I have been friends since 6th grade. We were maid of honor for each other's weddings. We haven't lived in the same state for 42 years but managed to keep in touch which is much easier now with email.

Sandy was my guest at 9 Hole Golf League on Tuesday. She hits a good ball. We did some shopping at Cave Creek on Wednesday but there was very little of interest. That evening we both went to Third Wednesday Bunco and she was the big winner.

Thursday we left early for Tucson to visit our friend, Terry Ann. We might have arrived an hour earlier if we hadn't brought the High School Yearbooks. They were too interesting and we missed our turns. We did the same thing on the way back to Sun City West. We turned a 6 hour trip into an eight hour trip, but we had so much fun we could have driven around all day.

While we were in Tucson we had lunch outside at the Tohono Chul Park. It was very crowded so we waited a long time for our food which was "worth waiting for". We shopped in their Museum Shop and I found lots of things to buy. Also we were able to take the tram at Sabino Canyon with Terry Ann and her cousins. It was wonderful. What beautiful scenery. We tried to capture it all in photos but I'm not sure we did it justice.

It was wonderful to spend time with an old friend who's still young.
