Return to Tucson

Papa and I spent left Lectoure after lunch on Monday and drove to Toulouse. We stayed in a hotel at the airport. We got up early Tuesday morning to return our leased Peugeot to Auto Europe. We flew from Toulouse to London Heathrow, then on to Phoenix. We stayed overnight with Claire’s family, and couldn’t believe how much Emerson and Colby have grown! We drove to Tucson, arriving before noon.

We’ve been busy every day since we got back to Tucson, cleaning inside the house, blowing off the patios and driveway, Papa repairing an exterior water leak, shopping for groceries, getting our Hummer inspected, signing up for a Turkey Trot race on Thanksgiving morning and picking up race packets. We have a bit of jet lag and aren’t sleeping on “Arizona time” just yet. It takes a bit of time!

The sky was cloudy today. This was the view as I turned into our neighborhood when returning from the grocery.


As I turned onto our street….

From the back of our property, 45 minutes later….

And from my walk through the neighborhood this afternoon, with the slightest shadow of a double rainbow. It was beautiful! A nice “welcome back” after a busy week!
