From Phoenix

       Yesterday we drove about two hours to visit an old mining town built in a hill.

 It was once known as the Wickedest City in the West but is now known as the Largest Ghost Town in America. There are about 500 residents and they put up with thousands of tourists. Artisans are plentiful and if you have a bit of cash you can drop a few thousand on art here. We visited a glass blower who works alone, very unusual, and who loves to talk and explain everything he is doing. He let us know why blown glass is so expensive. He also talked about Seattle being the glass blowers capital in the US. Well, I know that is true.

We had a terrific lunch at Grapes.

My salad, the Tuscan Berry, was remarkable.

We walked from shop to shop.

My favorite gallery was pretty expensive. It was called Pura Vida.

. It had beautiful textiles, jewelry, and pottery.

 I am storing extra sun in my cells to share with you at home.
