Sisters on the Fly-Christmas in July
Last weekend was our Christmas in July trip. The weather has been hot and dry for months, with the an ever-present threat of wildfires. But the rains started coming about a week or two before our trip and the forest became a cool green place to find respite from the Valley's heat. What a delight to spend 4 days and nights with my adventurous Sisters on the Fly. We cooked, kayaked, hiked, fished (delicious trout dinner on Saturday-thanks fisher-women), laughed, painted, napped, sang, played and enjoyed each others company til it was time to go home. Thank you Sisters for another weekend of rest and fun!

Through a serendipitous turn of events, I was able to spend 3 peaceful days in Oak Creek Canyon while attending a conference in Sedona. With new responsibilities as President for Az NAPNAP, tons of school work, the stress from changes at work and home concerns, it was a much needed break away. The lush green trees, cool night air and constant music of the creek soothed and quieted my troubles. I spent simple time resting, eating, reading and writing. Once again, a retreat and a sanctuary.
