Grand Canyon, but not further south in AZ. My sister has hiked there several times with Road Scholar trips and loves those areas--Marble Canyon, Havasupai, Superstition Mtns. I prefer forests.

I just heard from rbud's daughter. She has been in the hospital for 3 weeks and will be in nursing home care another 3. I am sending her a card. Let me know if you would like your wishes added to it.

Good morning all.
6:42 pm
Lizlin

Yes, of course, Ori. Perhaps add a note that all babblers who know her send their best wishes. I'm sure many lurkers would also wish her well.
6:43 pm
Lizlin

In fact probably all babblers would. It is a caring community and not everyone will see your message.
