Thank You, Thank You

Back in the Desert and it's only 100 degrees today! It's good to be home, all though I have picked up the awful cold that plagued my husband and so am feeling yuk-ky. Otherwise I got a very warm reception from all of our four legged children .

To wrap up an incredible week, here is a list of the places visited on our trip for those of you who asked. I hope you will have the pleasure of visiting some of them one day=)
