Tucson - First week in January

The 1st Week in 2020 starts out nice.  Tucson and I enjoy our morning walks along the wash.

 As does this Coyote

 The Birds seem to be enjoying the sunshine as well

Though the temperatures take a drop

in the mornings.

Gary's ankle is still a problem so he gets set up with an MRI

at the VA early Saturday morning.  No time for breakfast beforehand so we stop at our favorite breakfast place- Jerry Bob's afterwards.

 Saturday we go with a group of friends from the Park to St. Paul's Methodist Church to package food for the Salvation Army and some local schools.

 Who is that masked man?!?

 All sanitized and geared up to go!

 There were 36 tables set up with productions lines.  Packing Apple Oatmeal each table had 10 people.  Ingredients measured out, placed in bags, weighed, sealed and boxed.  We completed 7 boxes with 36 packets each.  A total of 50,000 meals packaged in 1 hour.

The next day is a beautiful day and Gary is sick of sitting around so we

try a bike ride with his brace on.

 I try to get him to turn around after 7 miles but he insists on continuing

 We end up at this rest area at about 10.25 miles.  Of course I did not have my good camera with my so didn't get a shot of the 5 hawks flying overhead or the 5 Military planes flying side by side.  Lots of planes flying low and criss-crossing the skies - guess they are on high alert.

All in all a good start to the New Year.
