Back to Green Valley

This is really a post I should have done October 10.

We had no problem getting to the Boston airport in time for our 10:30 am flight. That was when things got interesting. Ours was the third flight from Boston to DFW to be delayed that morning. Ours had mechanical problems with the fuel line and we didn't actually leave until about 1:45. The good thing was that we immediately got re-booked for a later flight to Tucson, and all went smoothly from then on, finally arriving at 6:55 pm, three hours late.

Things are very nice here in Green Valley with the weather in the 80/90 range. Mary and Charlie are here and we have been back to the pool. The bad thing was thing was that the phone, internet, and not all the TV channels are working. Cox Cable Co. is due to arrive sometime this morning to see what they can do to fix the problem.

Tonight we are going to our favorite fun theater, the Gaslight Theater, in Tucson. Their melodrama shows are always so much fun with creative lyrics to familiar tunes. The audience is expected to boo the villain and cheer the hero, etc. We even eat pizza the Anthony's Diner (1950 style) before the show. We try work in as many shows as we can on each visit down here. I think we will get in two this time.

I will not be posting regularly from now on, but may have some interesting events to cover, so check in every once in a while. For instance, we plan to go the Helldorodo Days in Tombstone on Saturday. That will be worthy of a post with some pictures. The locals all dress in period costumes and there are skits such as the "Shoot Out at the OK Coral" done in the street.

There will also be visits to our favorite authentic family-run Mexican restaurant, Wisdoms, in Tubac.

I'm including links to some of the fun things we do while down here in Green Valley.

Check out our website soon, as I'll be posting the "Best of the NE" pictures. There may even be some pictures of Arizona activities.

That's it for now. Grace and Paul
