Celtic Thunder
This was an interesting group with a huge cult following. Good music. I hadn't heard of the group before, so it was quite a surprise and delight when I found that I really liked them.

Joya Spa at Montelucia
Kalen and I spent a few hours rejuvenating before going to Zinc for Thankgiving Dinner. The property opened again (it used to be La Posada) on November 4. It's a beautiful property with very nice staff.
Sunrise in Phoenix
We are expecting a rainy day today. Stormy actually. Checked that Kalen has his umbrella and he just sent a message to go outside to see the sunrise. Awesome!! He said that the earlier version had a rainbow included. Two minutes later this was all gone.
On the way back to Phoenix
I'm at the San Diego Airport returning to Phoenix. Check this out! Rocking chairs next to plugs. They are filled with happy laptop users.
Made it!!!
We are going through the end of the line, scanning in our credentials and picking up our victory shirts. The place is packed and we are just anxious to make it through the closing ceremonies and find our way to the hotel, a warm bath, a hot meal, and a soft place to sleep...not on the ground...and not with 5000 other people.
Pit stop 4. 1,3 miles to go.
One photo of the line of portajohns. While I often welcomed the sight of these (as they were at the rest stops) I will be glad to be away from them for another year.
Heavy fog
No photo this morning. Heavy fog has the area in a white out. Visability is about 20'. We had a pasta dinner last night then went to the tents. I moved from my assigned tent with a stranger into Amy's tent in Samantha's place. Sleeping was tough until I took my Advil. Teammate Thea message: her feet were doing fine until after lunch when she developed tendoniyis and swelling in her right foot. She continued though to the end. You will need to ask her about getting kicked out of the bar with a bunch of angels. 21 miles! Ladee K. Rickard, MBA
Thanks for the view
Enjoying lunch, the sun, ocean breezes and the view. Thank you to my supporters and donors. Someone said that we have about 6,000 walkers this weekend. Wow!
Day 1 Opening Ceremonies
We are gathered for the opening ceremonies. Weather is awesome. Nice crowd. Thanks for stopping by the blog. Check back throughout the weekend for updates.
Mandala Tea Room
Enjoying an afternoon Darjeeling 2nd Flush in Old Town Scottsdale. Beautiful fall day to enjoy a sidewalk cafe.
