Enough about weather-related musings. I figured, since it's December and all, I'd update you all on David and I's 2010 "to do" list. It's not looking very good in terms of completion. However, we've done a whole lot more than we would have originally done. So hoorah for that. Plus, we have a whole 30 or so days to complete the rest of the little things. :)
The new ones we've crossed off since the last time I updated the list --
make ice creamDavid actually got an icecream maker and since then our fridge has been stocked with the homemade sweet dairy product. We've considered making a catnip icecream!color a pictureOh...you want proof? :) Here:
Go CampingFinito! We went to the Sonoran Desert National Monument. In fact, that's the way we spent our Thanksgiving. Took our mind off the fact that we weren't with friends or family. We had a good time and I took plenty o' pics. Enjoy them:
David setting up the tent. I helped after taking a picture. :)
The tent (I did the interior decorating, hehe).
Hello, lonely cactus!
An old wash. There were lots of old washes -- you can tell because they are more sandy/smooth and lots of greenery line either side of them.
Pretty.
Came across this old, dried up saguaro cactus.
We claimed it as our own. See how it comes with a handy handle?
So dry! I felt like a mini survivor man.
We gathered rocks and old debris to make our little fire pit.
David starting the fire. :) We cheated and used a lighter.
I love the colors here. :)
A pastel, water-colored sky should make any heart go pitter patter.
All our stuff + David making the salmon. It was so good!
:)
Remember that dried up saguaro cactus from above? Well, we found a use for it. Perfect nighttime fire pen! :P
Hope it doesn't make you barf or roll your eyes too hard. :)
