Sabino Canyon

Because we like to torture ourselves, we took the kids on a hike through Sabino Canyon. Sabino Canyon has lots of great things: cactus, rocks, scenic overlooks. And sand. Lots of sand. My kids and Kenna's kids saw the dry wash bed and came to a dead halt. Who needs to hike when you can play in sand?

Breydon, Adleigh & Catherine

The two toddler rivals

Eventually we convinced the kids to move on: 
I'm normally not a scenery photographer, but this is for everyone who thinks the desert is ugly.
After driving through west Texas and New Mexico, I can attest that the desert IS ugly.
But not in Tucson!

Breydon was my hiking buddy.
He may have almost fallen asleep on my shoulders.

Our glorious group of hikers:

Lost Breydon, though:

Hiking with little people isn't very relaxing, but the memories are (???) worth it.

Yes, worth the memories. Now we can laugh too!
