Cliff and Phil both arrived on Christmas Eve. I was so busy doing things with them that I didn't take time out to blog. I took many pictures over the past two days. I'll let them speak for themselves. On Christmas Day we began by going to the movies and saw "Up in the Air" with George Clooney. We all liked it pretty well. We then went to Saguaro E National Park (a 20 minute drive from our house). Cliff ran the 8 mile loop. Larry and I drove it, hiked awhile ourselves, then picked Cliff up. We saw beautiful colors at sunset. I always like it there. I cooked dinner when we got back while Larry, Phil, and Cliff played Fluxx. We watched a documentary movie that Cliff got me for a present, "Man on Wire." It was good, too.
Today we got up early and headed off to Chiricahua National Monument--a 2 hour drive. It has beautiful rock formations. There was snow, so the main road was closed to cars. We hiked it instead and spent a pleasant couple of hours walking, talking, and looking at nature. Tonight we are going to Cliff's favorite Mexican dive, El Taco Tote. Afterward, he will get together with a friend from Stanford (Emily) who visits relatives here at Christmastime. Here are some pictures from our events.
