Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum

Beautiful day to tour the desert Museum.  We arrived when it opened at 8:30.  We went to the Birds of Prey show and were able to see 5 different birds fly.  Great show.  Lots of walking.  Many types of animals from deer to wolves.

Old Tucson Studios 2012

We always love to go to Old Tucson Studios.  This year was no exception.  We were able to see 5 new shows including the can-can girls.  I was chosen to be in one of the shows.  My part was to hit a tambourine and shake my booty.  My reward was a bottle of sarsaparilla.   We enjoyed the comedy stunt show.  The weather is really great here in Tucson.
