I am sitting in the Phoenix airport waiting for our return flight. The storms in the midwest may be causing a bit of a delay because they have moved our flight back by 30minutes. Thank goodness I am sitting by an electrical outlet and there is free WI FI in the airport. The week has passed so quickly. Steve's work went well and we really enjoyed staying with Sarge and Sue in their new condo in Grayhawk. We played golf all 5 days. I think that may be a record for me. It was suppose to be 2 days of golf, a day off, and 2 more days. But we visited the Scottsdale TPC pro shop and found they were offering special off season rates and suddenly we were scheduled for golf on Sunday too. The TPC is a great course and it was fun but I think we were all ready to put the clubs away today. My birthday was fun. Steve had listened to my request and I was surprised because it was a much better camera than I expected. I will be studying the manual and learning about all of the functions for some time. I learned the quick point and shoot so we could take some pictures here but I am sure the quality will improve as I become more expert. One of the features we did get to experiment with is the continuous shutter function which allows you to take several pictures, one right after the other. The guys were anxious to see their golf swing in freeze frame action. These pictures were taken on the range before our game on Tuesday. Clearly Sue is the most photogenic.
Tomorrow is back to reality but I am anxious to see how the ducks and robins have been doing. Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures of them.

Thought your pictures looked great! Glad you got your fill of golf - this is a great time to visit the Valley of the Sun! Looking forward to your update on the duck and her eggs!
Thinking about you!
The pictures of the desert in bloom are beautiful. I think I speak for all of us when we say how happy we are with the new camera. At last the drought will end and we can see lots of new pictures. I am very excited to see new pictures of our mama duck, it is so nice of you to share.
I hope your birthday was extra special. After meeting Sarge and Sue I am certain they made it extra nice. I am glad you are home safe and sound and I can't wait to see you. Happy Belated Birthday ;)
