I'm posting some pictures here I promised days ago.
While we were in Benson with Gracie in the hospital we had time to visit Tombstone, AZ about 35 miles south. This is the town where the famous gunfight at the O.K. Corral took place. As would be expected it is now a tourist trap, but it was still something to be there where it all happened.

On the trail in Sabino Canyon. We hiked about 8 miles this day. Tucson is way, way in the background.

Ellen was up at 4:00 am and got this picture of me and my girls sleeping.
So I "got" her at 7:00 am when I got up.
Another view from our campsite at Catalina State Park.
View up Sabino Canyon on our hike. It's hard to believe there is water up here.
More water up in the canyon.
While we are not seeing much water up here at this time, flash floods are very powerful and have done a lot of damage to the road and trail system. A closer look at this picture shows the debris washed down on the road up Sabino in a flood several years ago that still has not been repaired. Repair is in process in many areas and still a long way from being finished.
