Sonoran Desert Send-off

Time to close down our home in Tucson. Yesterday and today we squeezed in a few final rides. Chris wrapped up early at work yesterday and spent the afternoon on a final climb to the top of Mt. Lemmon. I had an easier evening, riding the fun loop-de-loop of the eastside Saguaro National Monument. I saw lots of flower buds on the prickly pear cacti, it looks like in a few weeks the desert will be in full bloom. Maybe next year we can be here for that. Today Chris rode the 'Lemon Drop' mountain bike trail down Mt. Lemmon, while I road up the main road. It's a wrap.

Parting shots....
