Waving hello from the Seattle region.
One of my oldest (she doesn't mind me saying that because I'm still older than her) and dearest friends lives in Gilbert, AZ (Phoenix suburb) and I go down to visit periodically. For whatever reasons, I always seem to go in like August and the weather is killer but we are inside quilting so it isn't so bad on me.
I'm glad that you are posting -- now you know how we are and we want pictures!
