Tucson summary 3/8/11

I have been in Tucson for five glorious weeks and I leave in a week.  Weight training is not the same without a trainer but I have managed to use reciprocity at JCC and average 2-3 times a week lifting weights on  my own.  I have hiked once a week with the longest hike 9.2 miles.  Sally Krusing, (climbed Kili two yrs ago) suggested that hike was equal to the longest Kili hike, without the altitude!!!  Pontatoc Ridge last week with Lynn & Ginny was shorter but it was a little more technical and a great work-out.  Bike rides have averaged about three a week.  The Mt Lemmon ride, which I have done every Tuesday, is a great cross trainer!!  Today, after Mt Lemmon, I am looking forward to a round of golf with Bill and Kay W. and a dinner at North.  We have had great meals at Jasper's, Vivace, Arizona Inn, Firebirds, and an amazing sunset/meal at Hacienda Del Sol.  Lynn and Ginny left yesterday and Barb comes in tomorrow.   Life is "oh so good" !!!!!:):)::)
