And Finally Fall


We loved getting to celebrate the baptism of sweet Nora


 
 Several of the cousins came down to Tucson to celebrate with her too!



We were so impressed with the CTR cookies they made.



We all had a wonderful time.
 
Rod caught a new ride!  It's sure fun to drive, but saying goodbye to the TR6 was hard!

We took a little road trip to Arcosanti.  We always just drive past on trips north so we made it our destination this time.  It was fun to see.  I remember hearing about it when it was so avaunt guard.  They said there are about 70 people living there right now. It's an architectural experiment that never took hold.  It still has some very interesting ideas though.  Our guide was an architecture student from Columbia. 
 
 

they still have concerts here.

We enjoyed the tour.


My chip and dip sets...Ceramics experiments.
My AMAZING Husband decided to enter a sprint triathlon! I was, and still am, so proud of him and so impressed! It was rather intimidating and scary. 
 
                      
 
My sister, sister in law and niece also competed.  That's his number on his arm.
your age was put on your leg!


The Start!
 


400 meter Swim done...Harder than expected, partly due to so many other swimmers.


12 mile bicycle ride next



Then on to the 3.1 mile run!

 Love the Family support and love!


 A time of 1 hour and 47 minutes!  Fantastic!


 
 They all finished!  Wow!
There was food and a free massage...

He's My winner For Sure!  Congratulations love!
