Tucson. We go for the cactus.

And the invitations from the So. AZ AFP to speak, and eating breakfast at the Azure Gate B&B, and atmospherics, and a special dinner at Barb and Marty's incredibly, impeccably welcoming, gracious, visually artful, comfortable and uniquely stylish house. Barb and Marty, in addition to their own contributions to a better planet, brought not-one-but-two distinguished chefs into the world. We ate at Feast the night before, owned by Doug. This is our last night, for Simone and me. On the broad boulevards of Tucson, surrounded by mountains we'd hiked that day.
